Import Tips
• Include load capacity certifications and secure locking mechanism specs in import filings to meet safety regulations
• Coordinate with customs for oversized cargo handling due to the van's dimensions exceeding standard container sizes
• Document that it's solely for luggage to prevent reclassification as general freight cars under other headings
