Import Tips

Verify the airbag is explicitly designed for agricultural tractors via manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 8708.95.10.00 classification

Include OEM certification and test reports proving compliance with safety standards like FMVSS for US imports

Avoid misclassification as general auto parts (8708.99); document ag tractor compatibility to prevent duty reassessment
