Import Tips
• Verify G.V.W. certification from manufacturer to confirm under 5 metric tons; exceeding this shifts to higher subheadings
• Obtain EPA and CARB certifications for diesel-electric hybrids to avoid customs delays on emissions compliance
• Declare as 'new' only if unsold to end-user per statistical notes; used vehicles require title transfer proof
