Import Tips
• Provide homologation documents for road-legal status in destination country to clear customs smoothly
• Label fuel type and emission standards; non-compliant engines may face additional EPA fees
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring with side-car unless integral; separate side-cars have different rules
