Import Tips

• Verify motor output with manufacturer specs (18.65-37.5W) via test reports to confirm HTS 8501.10.60.60 classification

• Include CE/UL markings for electrical safety; provide wiring diagrams if part of assemblies

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as under 18.65W—leads to higher duties under 8501.10.40
