Buying a vehicle and importing it to Canada requires Canadian customs clearance. Depending on the origin of the vehicle, the duty levies, air conditioning excise, fuel-efficient excise and GST tax will be imposed. Vehicles that were made and assembled in North America are subject to fewer surcharges, levies and excises. The rates are especially tough on fuel-inefficient or “dirty” old cars made from outside of North America. This explains why so many Asians immigrating to Canada leave their old shabby cars in their old country. Moreover, there are tons of documents to be collected when importing a vehicle to Canada. Some of them include a recall clearance letter from the car manufacturer, original certificicate of title and bill of sale. All of this alongside with the shipping information has to be submitted to the customs for approval. A single mistake with the submission or documents – and your application will be rejected.
