Import Tips
• Verify exact power output with manufacturer specs to confirm under 5,000 kW threshold; exceeding moves to higher subheading
• Obtain EPA emissions certification as gas turbines are regulated under Clean Air Act for stationary sources
• Include detailed technical datasheets in entry docs to avoid misclassification as aircraft parts under 8411.91
