Import Tips & Compliance

Verify engine cylinder capacity with manufacturer specs and provide detailed technical datasheets to Customs for accurate classification under 8407.34.55.00

Include vehicle compatibility certification and EPA emissions compliance docs to avoid delays, as these engines require CARB/EPA approval for import

Beware of misclassification as parts (8409); ensure it's a complete propulsion engine, not an assembly for repair
