Import Tips

Verify CE marking or equivalent safety certifications for electric motors and autonomous navigation systems to meet OSHA and EU machinery directives

Include detailed technical specs on load capacity, battery type, and guidance system in commercial invoices to avoid misclassification as non-AGV trucks

Ensure EPA compliance for battery disposal documentation if lithium-ion batteries exceed certain capacities to prevent customs delays
