Import Tips
• Verify the machine is new and meets self-propelled criteria with original manufacturer documentation to avoid reclassification as used equipment
• Include detailed specifications on loader capacity, backhoe dig depth, and engine type in commercial invoices for accurate duty assessment
• Ensure compliance with EPA emissions standards for the diesel engine; non-compliant units may face additional penalties or denial of entry
