Import Tips
• Provide end-use certification proving the pump is for machines making cellulosic pulp, paper, or paperboard to qualify for this specific tariff line
• Ensure documentation includes technical specs showing suitability for stock handling in pulp and paper processes to avoid reclassification
• Verify pump materials are corrosion-resistant for fibrous slurries; common pitfall is mislabeling as general liquid pumps
