Import Tips

• Verify machine specifications confirm it's for flat metal products to avoid reclassification under rolling mills (84.62 note exclusions)

• Include detailed technical manuals and bending capacity data (e.g

• max sheet thickness) in import documentation for CBP review

• Ensure compliance with OSHA safety standards; common pitfall is missing CE marking for EU-origin machines
