Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide servo motor and PLC programming documentation to substantiate numerical control features during customs review

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'used' without proper inspection certificates, which can trigger valuation disputes

• Label as 'for flat metal products only' to distinguish from tube mills and prevent misrouting
