We will check if the vehicle identification number (VIN) is within the official recall batch.

This is a macro policy minefield. Although used cars are rarely classified as dumping, if your single import quantity is too large and the declared price is significantly lower than local similar products, it can easily trigger an investigation by the tax bureau. We strongly recommend B2B buyers to break down shipments into smaller batches and use multiple invoices for customs clearance.
