My question deals more with what, if anything, will I need in terms of declaration documents, saying that I bought the camper in Canada, that it meets the US standards as far as emissions or whatever from an environmental standpoint, and (the biggest question, I believe) is the declaration, if any, as it involves paying any required import duty or sales tax.
My TC doesn't emit anything except through the kitchen exhaust fan, furnace vent, fridge vent and occasionally, through the sleeping area windows. So far, the authorities haven't made me do an emissions test on those.
Two things you should do. 1) Go to your Border Services website. There is usually a section dealing with importations.
2) I just googled "importing an RV from Canada into the USA" and got lots of links to read. You can do this too.
Mine does that as well. Don't think that is anything that can be 'regulated' by any governmental entity.:W
I agree. A trailer's manufacture may be subject to government oversight, but the end product should be fine.
I have gone to Canada and bought cotton flannel blankets that do not meet the US Fire Retardant standards. I have never had an issue bringing them into the country. I have purchased them online from Canada and, except for children's nightclothes, there is no restriction on their shipping them to a US address even though they don't meet the US Fire Retardant standards (apparently children's nightclothes are expressly forbidden to be sold or shipped to the US by law - the rest are only forbidden to be SOLD in the US).
