Default Re: Canada to U.S. COPO and EPA

I'm going to comment here Greg, but it is all speculation based on "common sense" which Governments don't necessarily have.

First, I do not believe you would have any problem at Customs. They will want to verify the serial number and possibly hold the car a day or two to confirm there are no liens outstanding. I would then think Customs would give you some kind of paperwork saying the car meets their import regulations.

Second, you will then need to register the car in your State. You will no doubt require the Customs documentation and whatever else may be required. These other requirements could vary from State to State. Perhaps this is where your EPA comes in (I certainly don't know). Obviously you should check with your State's DOT to confirm what is required for you to register the vehicle in that State.

I have given the above information based on the fact I have purchased a couple of Musclecars in Florida and brought them back to Canada. Of course, the system may be different depending on which direction is involved.

My recommendation to you is to contact your U.S. Customs and your State's DOT to find out exactly what is required. Good luck.
