Import Tips
• Include software validation certificates as GC systems often integrate data analysis software requiring export control checks
• Declare exact model and serial numbers matching commercial invoices for traceability in customs automated systems
• Pre-notify carrier about weight (typically 50-70kg) and dimensions for proper freight classification
