Import Tips
• Include end-use declarations for tire cord to support high tenacity claim; mismatches can lead to duty adjustments
• Test and certify twist levels independently, as customs may sample for compliance with 5+ turns/meter
• Avoid retail labeling or consumer packaging to prevent shift to higher-duty retail yarn codes
