Import Tips

Verify machine specifications match 'addressing machine' definition; include user manuals and technical specs in documentation

Ensure CE marking for EU imports and FCC compliance for US; common pitfall is misclassifying as general printer

Obtain end-user certificates to avoid reclassification as parts under 8473 if sold unassembled
