Import Tips
• Submit engineering drawings showing double-width frame and newspaper-specific folder to confirm classification
• Avoid common error of declaring as 'printing machinery' without specifying newspaper use; include production capacity data
• Check for anti-dumping duties on European presses; maintain records of country-of-origin for steel components
