Import Tips
• Use ISO-certified test reports for RFL content and filament conductivity to support statistical reporting under suffix 622
• For bulk imports, ensure packaging preserves fabric integrity—damaged rolls risk classification as waste under 7019.90
• Monitor HTS updates; this narrow code targets specific tire cord to counter foreign subsidies—stay current on notices
