EPA, DOT, etc.). This classification will determine if they are allowed and if so, what is needed. Sometimes permits, certificates and/or licenses are needed. Should you want to have one of our specialized licensed Customs broker research this for you here please find our Regulated Products Consult Link. Classification consult fee is $249.00 for 30 minutes.”
So based on that you didn’t not get the car and loose $249 to get told no.
Nice how this works

What are you trying to import? Canada follows US crash and emission standards today (although they are starting to move to EU standards for some sectors) so it should be possible. Yes, it requires paperwork - you cant just buy a car and drive it across the boarder.
Canadian vehicles were pretty common when I lived in Michigan. I see some for sale here on the West Coast as well.
