Import Tips
• Document rebuild process with ISO 9001 compliance to satisfy customs scrutiny on used machinery valuation
• Avoid pitfall of incomplete spindle condition reports; declare accurately to prevent reclassification as scrap
• Include vacuum compatibility certifications for semiconductor end-use declarations
