Import Tips

• Verify refurbishment documentation and machine history to confirm 'used or rebuilt' status and avoid new machine classification

• Obtain certification from manufacturer on numerical control features and metal removal capabilities for Customs compliance

• Inspect for semiconductor-specific adaptations like vibration damping to qualify under statistical notes; declare accurately to prevent misclassification
