Import Tips
• Verify machine specifications match 'labeling boxes' to avoid reclassification; provide technical drawings and end-use documentation
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance if destined for EU markets; common pitfall is missing origin certificates
• Declare accurate HS code on commercial invoice to prevent customs holds; check for anti-dumping duties on certain packaging machinery
