Import Tips
• Verify compatibility with specific vehicle models via OEM specs to ensure correct HTS classification under suspension parts
• Include detailed technical specs and material composition in documentation to prevent misclassification as general auto parts
• Obtain certificates of origin for duty reductions under USMCA or other FTAs, as suspension components often qualify
