Hi there,

So we are finally at this point! We will be driving a minivan and a 26'u-haul to California. We are entering in Coutts/Sweetgrass POE. Can you help me make sure we have what we need?

k3 visa package

passports

inventory list of items being brought in

compliance letter - we never did get that thing from Chrysler! They are horrible. We do have a sticker on our engine so hoping that will satisfy.

I can't think of anything else for paperwork.

Thanks so much.

Yup you've got it covered aside from the I-94 cost ($6-7 USD) like Emancipation said! Maybe you'll be lucky and not have to pay it. ;)

Good luck! :)

Sorry,

You have to have the compliance letter from Chrysler to be able to import the car. You'll not be able to register the car in the US until you get the compliance letter and officially import the car. However, you can import the car at any CBP POE in the US. So you can get the letter later in the US and subsequently import the vehicle.

I registered my car here in Florida and tried to give them the compliance letter. They weren't interested. I wasted $85.
