Import Tips
• Obtain FAA or EASA certification documents proving the part's aircraft engine compatibility to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact material composition (e.g
• titanium alloy) as it affects duty rates and ITAR export controls
• Avoid common pitfall of insufficient Bills of Materials (BOM) linking the part to specific 8407 engine models
