Import Tips
• Document exact case dimensions with CAD drawings or photos from multiple angles to substantiate the 195.58+ cm classification
• Comply with EU export regs if sourcing from Italy, including acoustic testing certificates for soundboard integrity
• Budget for specialized piano movers and customs bonds due to high value and large size requiring flat-rack containers
