I suspect the same thing will happen for northern states buying from Canada!
- cactacea 8mo agoThis is entirely incorrect. You cannot permanently import or register a vehicle which has not undergone homologation. None of these vehicles have been certified to meet US safety standards and they cannot be imported permanently.
- LgWoodenBadger 8mo agoYour comment is also partially incorrect. Vehicles 25 years and older may be imported and registered regardless of safety standards or emissions. https://www.help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1100?language=en_US https://www.help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1100?language=en_...
- cactacea 8mo agoNice ackchullay there, thank you for your contribution to the discussion. It is pretty clear that OP is referring to new cars based on context but hey who cares about context.
- testing22321 8mo agoPlease show me a list of 25+ year old BYD vehicles, or any EV for that matter.
- csours 8mo agoSimple and legal are different matters. There's a BYD parked in my neighborhood pretty often (Central Texas) with Mexico plates. I have no idea how "permanent" it is, and yet there it is.
- cactacea 8mo agoI live in southern Arizona. My next door neighbor is Mexican and also owns a BYD. Longest he can keep it here is 90 days: https://www.help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1686 https://www.help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1686
