Import Tips
• Label equipment clearly as 'for metalworking' and provide cut samples demonstrating material removal to support classification
• Comply with OSHA laser safety standards and include training manuals in documentation for customs clearance
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls; include full automation options (shuttle tables) in declared value
