Import Tips
• Obtain manufacturer certification that the axle is non-driving to distinguish from drive-axles in adjacent subheadings
• Ensure invoice details tractor model (e.g
• BX1880) and 'non-driving' status to prevent reclassification
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on steel axles from specific Asian manufacturers
