Import Tips

Verify the tractor meets 'single axle' criteria with no dual rear axles; provide engineering specs and photos for CBP review

Include manufacturer's declaration confirming it's new (unsold to end-user) per statistical notes for accurate reporting

Ensure no mounted working tools are included, as they must be classified separately even if presented with the tractor
