Import Tips
• Verify the part is explicitly for farm wagons/carts via manufacturer specs to avoid reclassification to general trailer parts
• Include detailed engineering drawings and end-use certificates in documentation for CBP review
• Watch for common pitfalls like mislabeling as tractor parts, which shift to HTS 8708
