Import Tips

• Verify the machine's value is accurately documented under $3,025 per unit to qualify for this subheading; overvaluation leads to higher duties

• Include CNC control specifications and metalworking certifications in documentation to confirm classification as a bending machine for flat products

• Check for EU-origin components, as they may trigger additional anti-dumping duties; declare numerical control features explicitly
