Import Tips & Compliance

Verify disk diameter exceeds 21 cm and confirm it's solely for physical incorporation into ADP machines, not retail packaging

Provide detailed technical specs including interface (e.g

SAS/SATA) and capacity in import documentation to avoid misclassification

Ensure FCC compliance and RoHS certification; common pitfall is failing to declare as OEM unit vs consumer product
