Import Tips

Verify rebuild certification and obtain detailed service history to prove 'used or rebuilt' status and avoid new equipment classification

Ensure EPA or equivalent emission compliance documentation for the engine, as used heavy machinery often faces strict environmental import rules

Inspect for structural integrity and hydraulic leaks during customs; common pitfalls include incomplete refurbishment records leading to reclassification
