David I have a question I hope you can answer. I represent a
professional
Hockey player with the XXXXXXXXXXXX. This player might be
traded to XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
next season. I was wondering if he buys a new 2004 vehicle from
XXXXXXXXXXXXX
how much will he have to pay in Canadian taxes when he moves
there. Thanks
for your help. B XXXXXXl
==========================================
david ingram replies:
He should make sure that any US Vehicle he purchases has been
certified by the manufacturer as eligible to be exported /
imported into Canada.
The car should have daylight running lights, secure seat belt
anchors with no passive seat belts, Kilometres on the speedometer
and Canadian certified Crash bumpers which are more stringent
that US rules.
Then there are two rules.
If your hockey player is a Canadian (Wayne Gretzky eh!) citizen
and is coming to Canada, $10,000 Canadian of its value is exempt
and the balance is going to cost you about 15% for provincial
sales tax and GST.
If your hockey player is not a Canadian (Russian, American) and
coming to Canada on a work permit, the whole car may be imported
with no duties.
The tax would be 14.5% if he were coming to Vancouver.

Your name has been added to our list because of an emailed
enquiry. At the moment there are some 200 unanswered questions
and many are the same. To justify the time spent answering these
questions I simply send them to the list. this has two
advantages:
1. 3,000 other people sometimes give me a better idea or a better
answer.
2.I do not answer the same thing five times in one week.
This list was $125.00 a year from 1992 to 2001. It is free for
the time being. However, if you do not want to be on it, just
send back any message received with the word remove and I will be
happy to remove you.
Remember though, if you ask to be removed before your question
gets answered, you will not get an answer because they go to the
whole list to justify my time.
