How do I import and Australian Motorcycle into Canada?

Will I have to import my US vehicle into Canada when I move there?

  • I am a Canadian citizen who will be moving back to Canada after 10 years living in the USA. I purchased a Honda Pilot (manufactured in Canada, if that matters) in 2005 and want to bring it back to Canada with me. Will I need to import it? Everything I can find pertains to bringing newly purchased cars into Canada. I have owned this car for 4 years.

  • Answer:

    just drive it to your house in canada

From an article in Canadian Driver. Note that manufactured in Canada means nothing; it was manufactured for sale in the US. If your vehicle is less than 15 years old and was manufactured for sale in the U.S., you must first determine whether it qualifies for importation. Transport Canada's Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) program ensures that qualifying vehicles are modified, inspected and certified to meet Canadian safety standards. Upon arrival at Customs, a qualifying vehicle will be entered into the RIV program. The registration fee is $197 in Quebec and $182 in other provinces. Within 45 days, the vehicle must be altered at your expense to meet Transport Canada requirements (it may need daytime running lights and metric labels for instruments, for example). You won't be able to register and license the car in Canada until it is modified and inspected. The RIV Web site contains a list of eligible vehicles and detailed information about typical modification and inspection requirements.
