  1. Importing a Car from the USA to Canada: An Overview The cross-border import of vehicles from the U.S. to Canada has become an increasingly popular trend, primarily driven by cost savings.

  2. Key Requirements RIV Compatibility Your vehicle must be on the RIV Compatibility List to be eligible for import, ensuring it meets Canadian standards. Recall Clearance Ensure there are no outstanding safety recalls. The vehicle must pass an RIV inspection to confirm its compliance. Age Exemptions Vehicles older than 15 years from their manufacture date are generally exempt from certain Canadian safety and emissions standards. Modified Vehicles Heavily modified vehicles, such as lifted trucks or custom converted vans, may face inadmissibility issues due to non-compliance with Canadian regulations.

  3. Canadian Import Process at the Border Key Actions at the Border • Declare Vehicle: Inform the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officer about your vehicle import and present all required documents, including the stamped U.S. forms and Form-1. • Pay Duties and Taxes: Be prepared to pay the 5% Goods and Services Tax (GST), any applicable import duties (typically 6.1% for non-NAFTA vehicles), air conditioning tax, and potentially a Green Levy or luxury tax. • Receive Form-1: The CBSA officer will provide you with a stamped Vehicle Import Form (Form-1), essential for your RIV registration.
