Import Tips
• Provide photos and serial number history to prove rebuild status; ensure no new parts exceed 50% value to stay in used category
• Label with original and rebuild dates; common issue is misdeclaration as new, triggering higher duties under 8459.29.0010
• Comply with OSHA-equivalent safety certs for import; test for vibration specs critical in semiconductor environments
