The paperwork that gets tyres through customs

Which document you need is decided by the destination, not by the tyre. We tell you before the quote which certificate applies to your market, who issues it, and how long it takes.

What each market asks for

Gulf statesGCC / GSO
GSO conformity certificate (CCR) per pattern and size. Saudi Arabia adds an energy efficiency label certificate per model, a SABER product certificate, then a shipment certificate for each container.
NigeriaSONCAP
Product certificate first, then a SONCAP shipment certificate before the container is released.
European UnionECE / REACH
ECE type approval (E-mark) on the pattern, plus PAH test reports against the REACH limit.
Russia · EAEUTR CU 018/2011 (EAC)
The EAC certificate is the one customs asks for, per pattern family. A voluntary GOST R certificate does not replace it — see the Russian paperwork we hold below.
United StatesDOT / FMVSS
DOT marking on the sidewall; FMVSS 139 test reports for passenger and light truck tyres on request.
BrazilINMETRO · Portaria 379/2021
Registration with Inmetro through a Brazilian legal representative before the container ships, then the Inmetro seal and the Brazilian label on every tyre. Certification runs per family, not per size.
East AfricaPVoC / CoC
Kenya (PVoC), Tanzania (TBS) and Uganda (UNBS) consignment certificates through the appointed agent.

Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin (CO or Form A) and the factory test report where one exists.

Regimes change: a product certificate that was valid last year may need re-issuing, and Saudi Arabia moved most tyre approvals to SABER. We confirm the current requirement with the issuing body or our agent for your port before the order is confirmed, and we put the document list in the quotation.

A certificate you can check

Below is a certificate that travelled with a recent GCC shipment. It is not a picture of a certificate on a wall: the number, the pattern and the size are the ones that appear on the shipping documents.

Read who it is issued toThe holder is the factory that moulded the tyre — Shandong Yongsheng Rubber Group — not us. Type approvals work that way: the certificate follows the mould, not the invoice. A trading company showing you a GSO or ECE certificate in its own name, for someone else's pattern, is showing you something that will not clear customs.

The Saudi label — and the date that runs out

Saudi Arabia grades tyres for energy efficiency as well as for safety. Rolling resistance and wet grip each get a grade, the model is registered with SASO, and the certificate runs for one Gregorian year with no extensions. Ours for HAIDA EX-COMFORT 175/70R13 82T reads Very Good on rolling resistance and Good on wet grip — and it expired on 30 May 2025. It is on this page in that condition on purpose.

Why an out-of-date copy is on a sales siteEvery SASO label certificate is twelve months. The factory renews it against current test data before each shipping season, and there is no such thing as a multi-year one. A supplier showing you a crisp label certificate with the date out of frame is showing you something you cannot check — so here is ours as issued: number, grades, expiry. For a Saudi shipment we send the live copy for the exact model and size in the container. SABER wants it per shipment anyway, and a label that lapses mid-season stops the release.

175/70R13 is not a size in our current chart; HAIDA EX-COMFORT is a pattern we quote, and it also carries the ECE R30 approval at 175/65R14 shown further down this page. If your tender names this exact size and these grades, send the model list and we come back with the live certificate and the label artwork.

The European one: an E-mark approval

Same factory, different regulator. The Dutch authority RDW issues the E-mark on behalf of the Netherlands, which is why the number starts with E4. This one covers 385/65R22.5 160K — a trailer size we quote most months, and the two pattern codes it names, ST932 and ST916, are sold under DOUPRO, which is why we can put an E-marked 385/65R22.5 in a European container.

What R54 is notIt covers dimensions, load and speed. It is not the noise, wet-grip and rolling-resistance approval (R117) that an EU registration also asks for, and it is not a REACH PAH report. Tell us the pattern and we say which of those the factory holds before you order. One R117 report does exist for this factory — it sits inside the Brazilian certificate further down this page, and it covers that family's 70-series sizes only.

One approval lists dozens of trade names, which is how this industry works: one mould, many badges. It is also why a certificate in a trading company's own name, for someone else's mould, means nothing at the border.

The car one: an E-mark at 175/65R14

The approval above is for truck tyres. This is the passenger car version — Regulation 30, the same Dutch authority, and one size on the sheet: 175/65R14, load index 82, speed symbol H. That is a size we list, and the three patterns we list in it — HAIDA Runspirit, HAIDA EX-COMFORT and TIANFU TF107 — are named in box 2.2 of this form.

Test report
Bureau Veritas Certest, CNT252091, 30 October 2025

An approval covers one size and pattern family, not a brand: six badges can hang on the same sheet. It also does not stretch to the 175/65R15 that sits beside these patterns on our size pages — a different type needs its own approval, and we check that one when you ask for a document pack.

The Brazilian one: INMETRO, and the R117 test inside it

Brazil does not accept an E-mark. Every tyre sold there carries an Inmetro seal and a label, and the certificate behind it is issued in Brazil, for a whole product family, to a legal entity established in Brazil. This is the one covering the passenger car range we quote: 61 model listings, twenty sizes from 155/70R12 to P285/70R17, four trademarks.

Inmetro's certified products database, by number and revision
The R117 report is real, and it is size-boundUnder the ECE section above we said an R54 approval is not R117. This certificate answers part of that: one of the three test reports behind it, AVAR-HZB-P2303001704 from Bureau Veritas dated 4 April 2023, is an R117 report. What it does not do is travel. It covers the 70-series models listed in this family and nothing else — it is not an R117 report for 385/65R22.5, and not one for 175/65R14 either. Name a size and we say whether this family covers it.

Read who applied, because it changes what the paper means. The applicant is neither us nor the factory: it is a São Paulo agent that holds the Brazilian registration, which is how Inmetro runs. The manufacturer sits underneath, and that is the name your broker compares with the sidewall. The certificate names 61 models; we quote a handful of them, and TIANFU only joined the family at revision 05 in January 2026 — the same mould, one more badge.

The Russian one, and what it is not

This one was issued on 10 November 2026 and runs to 2031. It is genuine, a Russian laboratory tested thirty models, and it is the document most Chinese suppliers send when a Russian buyer asks for certification. It is also not the certificate the customs post asks for, so read the box before you put it in a tender.

It is not an EAC certificateTyres sold for road use in Russia and the EAEU need a certificate under TR CU 018/2011, the one that carries the EAC mark. What you see here is a voluntary certificate against a national standard: it supports a tender, a brand presentation or a winter-performance claim, but it will not clear a container. If you need EAC, tell us the pattern and we say plainly whether the factory holds it.

What the four pages do prove: HAIDA HD657, HD687, EX-COMFORT and HI-SPIRIT — the patterns we actually quote — were among the thirty models tested at the chemistry institute of Nizhny Novgorod State University. The same list carries Mileking, Delmax and Mazzini models from the same plant; we do not sell those and they appear nowhere else on this site. As with the other two certificates, the holder is the factory, not us.

What we will not do

01

Borrow a certificate

A certificate for another factory's pattern is not a certificate for the tyre in your container. We only send documents that carry the manufacturer, brand and pattern you are actually buying.

02

Edit a scan

No retouching, no extended dates, no pasted numbers. If a document has expired we re-issue it, and if it does not exist for your market we say so.

03

Promise what we cannot ship

If the pattern you want is not approved for your country, we tell you before the deposit and offer one that is.

Send the specification

Tell us the size, the pattern reference if you have one, the quantity and the destination port. We reply within one working day with availability, container loading and price.
