Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify engine specs match cylinder capacity (1,000-2,000cc) and power (>37.3kW) with manufacturer docs to confirm HTS 8407.34.05.90; agricultural tractor compatibility certificate required

• Include EPA/CARB emissions labels and test reports for US customs clearance; common pitfall is missing installation intent proof for ag use

• Declare as 'new' or 'used' accurately; used engines may need refurbishment records to avoid undervaluation penalties
