Hi Joy,

My vanagon and two of my Dad's vanagons are all US imports. The
procedure is not difficult; you simply file a copy of the bill of sale
and the title with Customs and Border Protection 72 hours before you
arrive at the border. CBP may inspect the vehicle (or not) then stamp
your title and you are on your way. At the Canadian side you submit the
title to Canadian Customs; pay the import duty and GST and you are good
to go until you get a new license plate and title from your local
(provincially run) DMV.

If you are *immigrating* to Canada the procedure may vary, but I suspect
it would be similar.

Happy Trails,
