Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the wheel is exclusively for semiconductor crystal growers (heading 8430) with manufacturer specs to avoid reclassification

• Include end-use certification proving semiconductor manufacturing application to qualify for potential duty relief programs

• Check for anti-dumping duties on steel components; provide material composition certificates
