Import Tips
• 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
