Import Tips
• Include detailed battery specifications and recycling plans in import docs to comply with emerging US battery regulations
• Ensure vehicle meets FMVSS standards; non-compliant EVs may require modification or denial of entry
• Label as 'new' only if unsold by manufacturer/dealer, per statistical notes to avoid used vehicle duties
