Import Tips

• Verify tool material and intended use via manufacturer specs to confirm non-metal cutting classification; metal-capable bits go to 8207.50.40

• Include detailed invoices specifying substrate (e.g

• wood, plastic) and power/hand tool compatibility for CBP review

• Avoid misclassification as rock drilling tools (8207.19) by documenting non-mining applications
