Import Tips

Verify engine power certification (kW rating) from manufacturer to confirm 8701.92.50.00; discrepancies lead to reclassification

Ensure no mounted interchangeable equipment like PTO-driven implements, as they must be declared separately per chapter notes

Provide proof of 'new' status (no prior sale to end-user) for statistical reporting; used tractors shift to different categories
