Import Tips
• Include grading certificates (BB/BB quality specs) matching Russian GOST standards converted to U.S. equivalents for customs verification
• Declare exact country of manufacture; Russian-origin goods may face additional sanctions screening beyond standard HTS duties
• Watch for knot size limits in face ply; excessive knots could downgrade classification justification
