Articulated Pusher Tug from Mexico
An articulated pusher tug is a vessel designed to push barges using a mechanical coupling system that connects it rigidly to the barge, allowing for precise control in inland and coastal waters. It falls under tariff item 8904.00.00 because it is specifically constructed as a pusher craft, a category explicitly included in the item's description.

Import Tips
• Ensure the tug is declared as a pusher craft under 8904.00.00, not as a general vessel, to avoid misclassification
• Have the vessel's registration and coupling system specifications ready for CBSA inspection
• Check if the tug qualifies for any duty relief programs for commercial marine vessels
