Import Tips
• Verify equipment efficiency ratings and emission compliance certifications like EPA standards to avoid customs delays
• Provide detailed technical specs and end-use statements proving industrial application, not residential use
• Ensure proper labeling of high-voltage components for safety inspections during import clearance
