Import Tips

• Verify engine's exact cylinder capacity (50-250cc) and power rating with manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 8407.32.90.80 classification; mismatches lead to reclassification

• Include vehicle propulsion end-use documentation, as engines must be 'of a kind used' for Chapter 87 vehicles; general purpose engines shift to 8407.90

• Ensure EPA/CARB emissions compliance labels and certificates for US imports to avoid customs holds
