Import Tips

• Obtain detailed vehicle history report (e.g

• Carfax equivalent) to prove used status and avoid reclassification as new under statistical notes

• Comply with Clean Air Act modifications for diesel engines; prepare for potential CBP inspection of hybrid battery and charging systems

• Declare accurate cylinder capacity via engine specs; pitfall is overlooking statistical suffixes for precise reporting
