Import Tips

• Test for electrical nonconductivity (per ASTM standards) as it's explicitly required; failures lead to reclassification

• Use ISF filings early for tire cord imports due to high scrutiny on automotive supply chain materials

• Label rolls clearly with HTS code, filament size, and RFL treatment to speed warehouse exams
