Import Tips
• Include weave pattern (plain) and weight certification (<250 g/m²) on commercial invoice to prevent duty disputes
• Test for resorcinol formaldehyde latex content; non-RFL treatments may reclassify to general fiberglass fabrics
• Label as 'tire cord only' to support specific subheading; watch for bulk packaging vs retail which doesn't apply here
