Import Tips

Include bend radius and throat depth specs in commercial invoice to demonstrate panel-specific design

Register CNC control system with BIS if containing encryption software; common oversight for imported machine tools

Avoid bundling accessories that inflate value over threshold; ship tooling separately if needed
