Default Importing perils - seeking advice

Am just having a wonderful read of the customs legislation....I needed that sleep!

Anyway, can anyone pre-warn me of the pitfalls of sea freighted goods in advance.

This relates to the impending purchase of a Tremec gearbox and bits out of the States.

As one issue I am aware of a possible duty dodge for goods declared as made in the USA but what level of proof is needed on this and what other information if any is needed?

Have to pay GST that's a given but are there other ways and means to soften the custom's blows?

Cheers

Steve
