TPMS Appendix A Clearance
Any vehicle listed on Appendix A of the Department of Transportation’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TMPS) list is ineligible for import due to non-compliant TPMS being installed on the vehicle

Any vehicle listed on Appendix B of the Department of Transportation’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) list requires proof that the vehicle is in fact equipped with TPMS, which can be proven with either a photo of the TPMS dash light or a build sheet from the seller stating that a TPMS system is installed.
