- Single Invoice Value: Be aware of the single invoice value, as it can impact tax calculations and potential import restrictions.
- Certifications: Depending on the nature of the goods (especially food containers), you may need certifications (e.g., food safety certificates).
- Post-April 2, 2025 Tariffs: The additional tariffs increasing to 30% on April 2, 2025, are important to factor into your cost calculations.
- Customs Ruling: For complex or uncertain classifications, consider obtaining a formal customs ruling from the relevant authorities. This provides legal certainty.
