Import Tips

Verify 'new' status via manufacturer certification; must not have been sold to ultimate purchaser per Chapter 87 statistical note

Confirm engine specs (cylinders, displacement) with OEM docs to match 8703.40.0030; hybrids require propulsion motor verification

Include EPA/CARB emissions labels and VIN for customs; common pitfall is incorrect hybrid vs PHEV classification
