Import Tips
• Submit detailed engineering drawings showing numerical control systems and cold-working specifications during customs entry
• Document end-use in semiconductor cleanrooms to qualify for potential manufacturing drawback programs
• Watch for common pitfall of tonnage-based misclassification; verify mechanical vs hydraulic operation with OEM specs
