Import Tips
• Label equipment clearly with model and serial numbers matching import invoices for traceability
• Prepare for possible USDA inspections, as haymaking gear contacts forage and must be clean upon entry
• Calculate landed costs including bonds for large machinery, which often require temporary importation storage
