Import Tips

Verify machine specs confirm flat-surface grinding for metal, not gear finishing, to avoid reclassification under 8461

Include detailed technical datasheets and end-use certificates for semiconductor processing to support duty preferences

Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance; watch for undervaluation pitfalls in used equipment imports
