Import Tips
• Verify the vehicle lacks lifting equipment to avoid reclassification under 8709.11; provide factory specs confirming short-distance transport design
• Include statistical reporting as 'new' if unsold to end-user per HTS notes; retain assembly certificates for customs
• Label clearly as operator-riding works truck to distinguish from pedestrian models and prevent valuation disputes
