What kind of Documents and Paperwork are needed to Import a Car into Canada?
There are a number of necessary documents you will need and have to fill out over the course of importing your vehicle into Canada. This is relatively straight forward so I will try and create somewhat of a “Document checklist” for importing a vehicle into Canada. • Vin Number – Get the VIN number first if you don’t already know it. • Insurance Papers – Some insurance companies require that you have registration information upfront, but usually just the VIN number will do until you get the Vehicle properly registered. • Registration – If you are buying from a dealer, they will provide you with temporary permits, if not, you will need to go purchase one from the local Motor vehicles office. If you are driving through more than 1 state on the way back to Canada and did not purchase from a dealer, this will be tricky because you will need a temporary permit for each state that you drive through. Once you reach Canada, your American temporary permits are sufficient enough to drive home wit
