Import Tips
• Confirm end-use via buyer affidavits stating use on lawns/parks, not farms, to prevent misclassification
• Ensure bedknives and reels meet exact tolerances; mismatched parts can trigger valuation disputes
• Bundle with maintenance manuals to demonstrate dedicated mower function during customs exam
