Import Tips
• Document the degree of completion (e.g
• hobbing started) to justify parts vs. finished gear classification
• Obtain supplier affidavits confirming intended use in gear boxes to prevent shifts to Chapter 72
• Use ISF filings accurately with detailed part descriptions for smooth customs clearance
