Import Tips
• Verify crane load capacity and tire specifications in documentation to confirm classification under self-propelled on-tires machinery
• Obtain crane safety certifications like OSHA or CE marking to avoid customs delays and ensure compliance
• Declare exact tire type (pneumatic) and self-propulsion mechanism; misclassification as truck-mounted can lead to re-assessment
