Import Tips
• Verify unit value with commercial invoice to confirm eligibility under $3,025 threshold; overvaluation risks higher duty
• Provide detailed technical specs proving metal removal capability to avoid reclassification as non-lathes
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance if destined for EU markets post-import
