Import Tips
• Verify GVWR and dimensions comply with DOT standards; obtain RVIA certification for safety features like propane systems
• Include detailed build sheets showing non-structural camping fixtures to avoid reclassification as general cargo trailers
• Declare exact axle configuration and hitch type; common pitfall is missing EPA labels for any on-board appliances
