Import Tips
• Provide detailed emissions certification for diesel engines; EU-spec models may need US conversion verification
• Document prior ownership and mileage accurately to confirm 'used' status and avoid new vehicle duties
• Check for outstanding safety recalls via NHTSA; import bonds often required for high-value used luxury vehicles
