Import Tips
• Verify machine value with invoice and appraisal to confirm under $1,000 threshold; overvaluation leads to reclassification
• Provide detailed technical specs showing woodworking use (e.g
• cutter heads for wood) to avoid misclassification as universal tools
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance; common pitfall is missing spindle speed documentation for customs
