Import Tips
• Provide odometer readings and service history to substantiate 'used' classification and prevent disputes over new/used status
• Confirm no cab modifications that could shift to chassis headings 8702-8704; declare any removable attachments separately
• Check for compliance with country-specific safety standards; pitfall is overlooking track wear limits affecting import valuation
