Import Tips
• Document disc specifications and gin capacity (bales/hour) to distinguish from general-purpose textile cleaners
• Ensure electrical certifications (CE/UL) match destination country standards for agricultural processing equipment
• Avoid reclassification by specifying 'cotton only' in technical specs; multi-fiber machines go to other 8445 subheadings
