Import Tips
• Verify engine emissions compliance with EPA and CARB standards; non-compliant units may face detention at customs
• Include detailed specifications like deck size, engine HP, and fuel type in commercial invoices to confirm classification as a riding lawn mower
• Obtain original manufacturer certifications for safety features to prevent reclassification as agricultural machinery
