Default Importing European Armour to Canada

I thought I would clear the air and set a few things straight for people.

There has been much talk on this subject, sadly a lot of mis information and folklore.

Anything from eastern europe or from the uk, with all armaments removed, are nothing more than a green metal box on tracks or wheels. AS LONG AS THERE IS NO US TECHNOLOGY IN OR ON IT.

As such it is admissable to Canada with zero import licence requirements and no Controlled Goods Program involvement.

The Customs Tarriff Trade Code for some such vehicles is 8710.00.00.19

If you would like to have me make arrangements to import your vehicle I am happy to consult or advise based on my knowledge and experience.

Here endeth the lesson

Regards

Robin Craig

Default export/import

I like many other collectors in the UK have exported armoured vehicles to Australia and Sweden with no problems there a lot of mumbo jumbo being talked by people who want to earn money by providing export documentation...as long as the original shipping invoice shows the item to be a MUSUEM RELIC there is no VAT to pay anywhere! best regards and a Merry Xmas and a Happy new Year to all regards malcolm in the frozen north of northumberland

Thats great to hear guys. I had been asking around here in Canada, and a few people who i dont want to bring into this, but own or deal in military vehicles had told me paper work galore, and controlled good doctorate and import/export office were involved.

What is the first few steps in involved in importing from say England?

PM me if you can with what you have for sale,

Andy
