Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify dry linen capacity exceeds 10 kg with manufacturer specs to confirm classification under 8450.20; smaller units shift to 8450.11/8450.12
• Include coin mechanism documentation and ensure compliance with energy efficiency standards like ENERGY STAR for U.S. imports
• Avoid misclassification as household by providing evidence of commercial installation intent; common pitfall is lacking capacity certification
