Import Tips
• Provide OEM compatibility lists and DIN/BCI group certifications to demonstrate starting engine purpose during CBP review
• Comply with EPA battery recycling regulations and include spill containment declarations to expedite hazardous goods clearance
• Watch for undervaluation penalties; declare accurate landed costs including anti-dumping duties if from specific origins like China
