Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as '9-11 micron RFL tire cord' with test reports; mislabeling leads to 7019.69.50 default
• Comply with TSCA for chemical treatments—RFL latex requires import notifications if new to U.S
• Watch for set shipments with rubber; individual fabric stays 7019, but kits may go to 8708 as tire parts
