Import Tips

• Verify the joint is explicitly forged (not cast) via material certification to match HTS 8708.99.68.20; misclassification to 8708.99.8180 risks penalties

• Include OEM part numbers and vehicle compatibility docs (e.g

• Toyota HiLux specs) to prove linkage to heading 8704 trucks

• Ensure supplier provides torque ratings and heat treatment records to meet DOT/NHTSA safety standards for imported auto parts
