Import Tips
• Ensure the vehicle's GVW is clearly documented in the bill of lading and vehicle registration to confirm it exceeds 5 tonnes
• Verify that the engine is spark-ignition (gasoline) and not diesel, as this affects classification
• Be prepared to provide the vehicle's VIN and manufacturer's specifications to the CBSA officer at the border
