Import Tips

Provide detailed blueprints showing disk mechanism for chipping to confirm 'chipper' classification over general slicing machines

Label as 'for wood only' to prevent scrutiny; mixed-material capability requires separate tariff justification

Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance in woodworking machinery imports
