Import Tips

• Verify engine emissions meet U.S

• EPA Tier 4 standards; non-compliant units may face detention or high penalties

• Obtain original manufacturer certificates of origin and capacity specs to confirm >90.7MT payload for proper HTS classification

• Budget for specialized heavy-lift transport and secure oversized load permits; common pitfall is underestimating customs bond requirements
