Import Tips
• Provide cleanroom class certification (e.g
• ISO 14644-1 Class 5) in import docs to confirm semiconductor suitability
• Avoid common pitfalls by declaring all modular accessories separately if not integral to the platform
• Register for Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) filings early for high-value machinery imports
