Import Tips
• Obtain FAA certification documentation and export licenses from the country of origin to verify airworthiness and compliance with US aviation standards
• Declare the exact unladen weight per subheading note, excluding crew, fuel, and non-permanent equipment, to avoid misclassification
• Prepare for BIS export control reviews under Category VIII for helicopters, as they may require validated licenses
