Import Tips
• File with U.S
• Agent designation for foreign manufacturers as required by FDA medical device regulations
• Include radiation safety reports since MRI systems emit radiofrequency energy, subject to FDA performance standards
• Verify bill of lading descriptions specify 'complete MRI apparatus' to prevent classification as unassembled parts
