Import Tips
• Verify machine value with invoice and appraisal to confirm eligibility under the $3,025 threshold
• Provide detailed technical specs showing it's solely for slitting/shearing flat metal products, not combined operations
• Ensure country-of-origin documentation, as anti-dumping duties may apply to certain steel processing equipment from specific nations
