Import Tips
• Verify vehicle compatibility with OEM part numbers and provide detailed engineering specs to customs for classification confirmation
• Include certificates of origin and material composition to qualify for preferential tariffs under USMCA or other FTAs
• Avoid misclassification as driving axle parts; ensure documentation specifies 'non-driving' to prevent duty reassessment
