Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify machine condition with detailed inspection reports and service history to confirm 'used or rebuilt' status and avoid misclassification as new

• Obtain OEM rebuild certification and ensure all safety standards (e.g

• CE marking) are documented for customs clearance

• Declare accurate value based on post-rebuild appraisal to prevent undervaluation penalties
