Importers of Tire Retreadings paid $204K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 11.89% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.

Last updated: August 2026 dataRetreaded tires—produced by bonding new tread rubber onto a inspected and buffed casing—serve primarily the commercial trucking, aviation, and off-road equipment markets, where the economics of casing reuse are most favorable. The retreading process is governed by FMVSS No. 117 for highway use, and retreaded tires must carry a DOT identification number just as new tires do. Trade in retreaded tires is distinct from new tire trade in both competitive dynamics and classification: HTS treatment separates retreadings from new tires, and antidumping orders that cover new tires do not automatically extend to retreads, making origin and process documentation critical for correct duty determination.

Not automatically. Antidumping and countervailing duty orders are defined by their scope language, and whether retreaded tires fall within a given order depends on the specific scope as written and interpreted by the Commerce Department. Importers should request a scope ruling from Commerce if there is any ambiguity about whether their retreaded product is covered.
Importers must be able to show that the retreaded tire bears a valid DOT Tire Identification Number and that the retreading process and materials conform to FMVSS No. 117 requirements. This typically requires manufacturer certification records, casing inspection documentation, and test data; NHTSA has authority to require production of these records.
