2. Boarder U.S. states/towns the car dealerships are now being told by some manufactures not to sell new cars to Canadians. So double check with dealer if this is the case, most car brokers will still sell to Canadians or you may have to go more inland. Used cars are no problem just double check with U.S. National branch about warranty coverage in Canada.
3. For a new car just wire transfer the money to them if it is used I would only put down a deposit and never buy it site un scene I got screwed the photo’s looked great but didn’t show body damage/scrapes/scratch’s. This was from a big dealer in Seattle and they said the car was clean with great condition body, which was untrue.
4. Once the car is purchased have them fax you the title and the recall letter, if it is used you will have to contact the National branch of the manufacture to have then do a check on the VIN # for any recalls.
5. Fax the recall letter to riv at Fax: 1-888-642-9899 and fill out this http://www.customs.gov/linkhandler/c...export_wks.doc and fax to US boarder at least 72 business hours before you bring the car through. Fax # (406) 432-5528 Phone them to make sure they received the fax, a fax confirmation is not good enough.
6. Go to ICBC to get a binder for insurance, before you pick up the car.
7. Pick up the car make sure you get the original title, recall clearance letter, (used cars need a Carfax done), State permit and I think that’s it.
8. Drive to the boarder between 8a.m. and 3:30 p.m. see U.S Customs there is a separate line for car exports, so make sure you are standing in the right one. They stamp your copy of the Title.
9. Now go to Canadian customs and tell them you are importing a car and grab the date of manufacture off the drivers door before you go in.
10. Now you pay duty or tax and the RIV Fee $195 + tax and $100 for A/C if the car has it. If the VIN starts with a J it is made in Japan and there is a 6.1% duty and the GST is 6%.
11. Once you pay they will give you Form 1 fax this to RIV at Fax: (416) 626-0366 once you get home.
12. Phone them a day or two later and ask them to email or fax Form 2 to you so you can get the inspection done.
13. Before getting it inspected make sure there is no tint on front windows and the car has daytime running lights (DLR’s), no chips or cracks in the windshield and a third break light. If car has mods. make sure it has a cat, D.O.T. approved tail and head light’s, etc.
14. If the car is used you have to get a provincial inspection done too.
15. When you pay for your insurance you will have to pay 7% PST.
16. Enjoy the money you saved, and spend it on your wife, a trip, or mods for the car.
