Can any car from the USA be imported?
For US Customs you’ll need 1. Title with your name filled in. Not a copy of the title, you’ll need the real one. A new car’s title is also known as the MSO (Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin) or COO (Certficate of Origin). 2. Purchase Order (PO) from with your name and VIN on it. Price and any other fees should be clearly marked. 3. US Border Worksheet that you Fax to the US border at the same time as the Title and PO. 4. These 3 documents need to be faxed for pre-approval to the applicable US border where you will cross at least 3 working days prior to crossing. Fax the front and back of the title, the PO, and the Worksheet to the US Border you want to cross at least 72 weekday hours in advance. If your paperwork was correctly sent in advance and is in order, the US customs process and any vehicle inspection should be pretty quick. Note: not all US customs offices are open nights and/or weekends for vehicle export. US Customs export to Canada through Blaine, Washington Fax (360) 332-
