Import Tips
• Label with original serial number and import as 'used' with odometer/engine hour readings to prevent new classification
• Comply with DOT roadworthiness if transiting highways; common issue is missing noise emission certificates
• Use professional appraisers for fair market value of used equipment to avoid customs penalties
