Import Tips & Compliance

• Document that the bed is a fabricated weldment, not a cast or machined part, to match the tariff item

• Be prepared to show the bed is specifically designed for rubber kneaders, not general industrial use

• Verify the applicable duty rate based on the country of origin and any trade agreements in force
