Import Tips
• Verify equipment qualifies under Note 11(C) with technical specs proving semiconductor boule use; general crystal growers may shift classification
• Provide end-user certificates showing exclusive semiconductor application to avoid reclassification as lab apparatus
• Ensure BIS export license compliance if from controlled origins, as semiconductor tools face strict controls
