Import Tips
• Provide rebuild invoices and test reports showing performance equivalent to new to qualify as 'rebuilt' vs scrap
• Check for subheading compatibility; engines for 8701 tractors need agricultural certification if applicable
• Avoid pitfalls by labeling clearly as 'used/rebuilt' to prevent reclassification as parts under 8409
