Import Tips

• Ensure the vehicle is classified as a special purpose motor vehicle, not a transport truck, by documenting its drilling derrick as the principal equipment

• Provide the manufacturer's specifications and photos to the CBSA officer at the border

• Verify if the rig meets Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) for on-road use, as modifications may be required
