Export Considerations

Electric trucks need battery capacity, charging standard and UN 38.3 lithium documents, and ship under dangerous goods rules. Commercial vehicles are subject to type approval and emission rules of the destination (ARAI/CMVR, ECE, EU WVTA), left- or right-hand drive configuration, import age limits for used vehicles, axle load and homologation rules, and customs value and duty checks; ship by RoRo, flat rack or container with VIN, engine and chassis numbers on the invoice, fuel drained and battery disconnected.
