Import Tips
• Verify laser classification excludes laser diodes; provide technical specs confirming gas or solid-state laser medium
• Include FDA exemption documentation if non-medical; ensure CE marking for safety compliance
• Declare power output accurately to avoid reclassification as machine tools under Chapter 84
