Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify GVWR and payload documentation to confirm capacity fits 63.5-90.7MT range; misclassification risks penalties

• Obtain off-highway use certification from manufacturer, as road-legal versions shift to highway truck headings

• Include EPA emissions compliance for diesel engines and DOT exemptions for non-road vehicles
