Exporting used machines over 10 years old: how to declare the age?

The client ordered four 2013 loaders; the destination limits used machines to eight years.
Customs require the year of manufacture, checked against the year.
The client says plates can be altered. We see risk. How is this usually handled?

Never touch the plate: discovery means whole-lot return plus penalties, far beyond this order's margin.

Check the destination rules first; some countries count from first registration, which may still comply.

Supplying machines within the age limit is safer; the project can wait, clearance cannot.
