Import Tips
• Provide wafer size compatibility specs (200mm/300mm) in documentation to confirm semiconductor application
• Include material safety data for laser components to meet import radiation safety requirements
• Avoid common pitfall of missing end-user statements proving semiconductor manufacturing use
