Import Tips & Compliance

Obtain ABS or Lloyd's Register certification proving marine propulsion compliance to support tariff classification

Declare precise power output and RPM ratings, as exceeding certain thresholds may trigger additional safety inspections

Avoid mislabeling as parts; ensure import docs specify complete turbine assembly to prevent shifting to parts subheadings
