Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Declare this as a part of the wafer polisher (8479.89.10) and provide the machine's model number

β€’ If the platen includes a motor, verify whether the motor is separately classified under Chapter 85

β€’ Ensure the platen is not considered a general-purpose rotating table, which would fall under heading 84.79
