Inspections for Vehicles Imported from US

Successfully Completed Inspection Report Must Be Faxed To RIV

In an effort to keep your importation process moving along smoothly, please ensure that your inspection centre sends RIV a copy of the successfully completed inspection report and Form 2 by faxing it to 1-888-346-9416.

If the inspection centre does not normally complete this step, you will have to do it yourself to receive your Canadian Compliance sticker from Transport Canada.

As mentioned in the importing guide, please make photocopies of all your importing documents, including the completed and stamped Form 2 after the federal inspection is completed. In the event that RIV doesn't receive the fax from the inspection centre, and you have given this form to your insurance agent, you will still have a back up copy that you can send in.

Many thanks to a UCanImport subscriber who provided these additional hints to make your importing experience more streamlined.
