So ive been looking into importing a vehicle from the states, into canada, and was wondering if anyone has done it before, and if it was easy or not. This may also be helpful for anyone else looking to import a vehicle from the states.
So far ive contacted registrar, and they said that on a 94-99 celica, all i need is a recall clearance letter, from the manufacturer, stating that there are no outstanding recalls on the vehicle. i do not believe that there are any recalls for the 6gc. Can anyone confirm this? The only other thing i need to do, within 45 days is a modified out of province inspection, including having DRL's installed. Need to give US customs 72 hours notice of exportation, fee of $209 at the border, $100 if vehicle has a/c, and any additional duties, which should be none if the car was manufactured in the US. To anyone whos done this; does it sound like the right steps? Thanks, Corey |

But after I go to the customs holding warehouse where it is bonded I just have to fill out some forms, and pay some taxes/duties/fees? I do not have to deal with a customs broker myself, or send any papers to the US/Can border do I? That is all done by becoming bonded and to unbond it I just have to pay the fees and what not?
