Import Tips & Compliance

Verify machine condition with detailed inspection reports and maintenance history to confirm 'used or rebuilt' status and avoid new machinery classification

Include original manufacturer specs, serial numbers, and refurbishment certifications in documentation for customs valuation and compliance

Check for EPA or OSHA compliance labels if hydraulics or electronics were rebuilt, as environmental regs apply to metalworking imports
