Import Tips
• Obtain OEM certification linking the base to specific 8463 models to prevent reclassification as general castings
• Ensure no advanced features like pre-drilled mounting holes that exceed 'machined only for removal of fins' allowance
• For semiconductor testing drills, confirm if statistical notes apply for potential duty-free entry
