Import Tips
• Include proof of USPS approval or IMI (Information-Based Indicia) compliance in documentation to speed customs clearance
• Declare exact model specs showing franking and calculating features; avoid generic 'mailing machine' descriptions
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls—provide commercial invoices with serial numbers for high-value meters
