Import Tips
• Submit technical data sheets proving machine tool specificity and voltage compliance under 1,000V
• Use ISF filing early due to high-value electronics; declare as 'CNC control for machining centers'
• Avoid reclassification by documenting exclusion of 8517 switching functions as primary feature
