Import Tips
• Specify end-use as 'tire cord' on commercial invoice; general fabric declarations trigger higher scrutiny and potential duty adjustment
• Maintain chain of custody documentation from filament extrusion through RFL dipping to weaving process
• Watch for roll diameter restrictions; compressed rolls exceeding declared width may be measured differently by customs
