FAQ’s
What is the vehicle importation eligibility criteria in Canada?
Vehicles must qualify for entry under one of the following two principles:
- vehicles that are required to be registered in the RIV Program: applies to US specification vehicles sold at the retail level in the US or belonging to the category of prescribed vehicles from Mexico (passenger car, multi-purpose passenger vehicle, truck or bus).
- vehicles that are not required to be registered in the RIV Program: applies to all other admissible vehicle entries (Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) vehicles, age-exempt vehicles,
non-regulated vehicles, and vehicles that are imported temporarily).
NOTE: Vehicles that do not qualify for importation under one of the two preceding options are considered inadmissible and cannot be imported into Canada.
What is FMVSS and CMVSS
FMVSS stands for Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, a U.S. federal regulation specifying design, construction, performance, and durability requirements for motor vehicles and related components, while CMVSS stands for Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, a similar set of rules in Canada that overlap with FMVSS but are not identical.
Can we import non-compliant vehicles?
Yes, we can temporary import the non-compliant vehicle for special purpose such as: exhibition, demonstration, evaluation, testing, further manufacturing and to conduct works or operations etc.
What documents are required to clear vehicles manufactured in the US into Canada?
Farmbro can assist U.S. and Canadian customers with all the documentation required for successful vehicle entries into Canada. Documentation requirement varies from case to case and in some cases special authorization may be required from Transport Canada.
