Import Tips

• Verify the unit uses evaporation only (no compressor) to confirm HTS 8479.60.00.00 classification; refrigeration units go to 8415

• Include energy efficiency certifications and water pump specs in documentation to avoid misclassification as humidifiers

• Check for country-of-origin marking on cooling pads and fans; common pitfall is incomplete BOM for assembled imports
