Id like to buy a car in Germany and have it imported to the United States as a gift to me. What sort of paperwork will be involved?
It depends. If the vehicle was built by a recognized manufacturer doing business in the United States, but was built for use in Germany, your paperwork load may be a bit lighter than in other situations. But, no matter the situation, there will be tasks to complete. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration – Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance (NHTSA-OVSC) is full of helpful information on what to do before and after the delivery of your new vehicle.
