Import Tips
• Submit VIN-specific documentation proving 'new' status and no prior title transfer to ultimate purchaser
• Document exact cylinder count and capacity; misstated specs often lead to audits under chapter notes
• Prepare for FMVSS certification; hybrids require specific battery safety disclosures to prevent delays
