Import Tips

• Confirm that the machine is not a press for working metal by forging or bending, as those fall under other headings

• Keep the purchase invoice and technical manual to demonstrate the machine's shearing function

• If the machine is valued below a certain threshold, ensure the value is correctly declared to avoid penalties
