Import and Procurement
Bringing equipment in from abroad has less to do with finding the right supplier and more with getting the customs classification right.
The cost of an HS code error
HS code classification determines the customs duty rate and the required documents for the imported equipment; an incorrect classification can lead to an unexpected duty difference.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who determines the HS code classification?
The correct classification is worked out together with a customs broker based on the equipment's technical specifications, settled before the order is placed.
What's the difference between EXW and CIF?
Under EXW, shipping and insurance responsibility lies with the buyer; under CIF, the seller takes on that responsibility.
How is CE conformity verified for equipment sourced from the Far East?
Declaration of conformity documents are reviewed, and an independent test report is requested if needed.
Is there a risk of additional customs duty?
That risk is minimized with correct HS code classification, though regulatory changes are tracked in advance.
