Who is RIV, and why do they want my money?
Registrar of Imported Vehicles is the Federally contracted agency responsible for keeping track of imported vehicles. They insure compliance with Canadian vehicle safety standards, assist with the importation process and with registration of your new vehicle. The fee of $195.00 + tax is payable prior to receiving Form 2, which is needed to have your final inspection done to prove modifications have been completed.
