Import Tips
• Document the molybdenum content of the cutting insert (over 0.2%) in the product specifications, as this is key to classification under 8207.90.90
• If importing from a free trade agreement partner, obtain and retain a certificate of origin to potentially reduce duty
• Ensure the hob is clearly described as a gear cutting tool on the commercial invoice to avoid misclassification
