Import Tips
• Label machine clearly as 'flat knitting, other' to prevent misclassification as stitch-bonding equipment
• Obtain manufacturer's declaration of conformity for safety standards like ISO 13849
• Watch for voltage compatibility (e.g
• 220V vs 110V) to avoid customs holds on electrical safety
