That is a perfect example of bad advise. The CBSA will not allow you to import any motorized vehicle until you properly export it from the US. The rules, strictly enforced, no exceptions, are:
CBP regulations state that at border points:
1. You will be need a U.S. Census ITN number which you can obtain using a U.S. AES authorized agent, freight forwarder or customs broker to electronically file your export information
2.72 hours prior to exporting your vehicle, you must provide CBP at the port of exit:•Proof of ownership
•U.S. Census ITN number
3.The vehicle must be presented to U.S. Customs at the time of export.
Follow the rules on the RIV website and importing is no problem. Follow advise on here and it will be an expensive nightmare.
Ok all has changed since I use to do the odd vehicle as the Cenus ITN
number is new deal
This Census number just become mandatory in October 2014 that's why I never heard of it as its a brand new deal
HOWEVER this is a USA requirement not a CDN requirement
No where in the RIV ruels and regulations does it say a US Censes number is required
