Import Tips
• Include user manual excerpts specifying thermoplastic materials to prevent reclassification to rubber processing
• Calculate and declare total import value including optional robotics if bundled, to avoid undervaluation penalties
• Pre-verify voltage/plug standards for US import to sidestep post-entry modification issues
