Import Tips
• Require EUCE or CE marking recertification for European rebuilt machines to meet US safety import standards
• Document original manufacture date vs rebuild date clearly, as machines over 10 years old may face additional scrutiny
• Confirm cutter tooling excluded or separately classified to avoid set classification issues
