What are the requirements for exporting a vehicle/car through a land border?
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations require the exporter of a vehicle to submit all export documents to the port of entry from which the vehicle will be exported 72 hours prior to export. If the vehicle is titled in the U.S., the documents required are the original Certificate of Title or a certified copy of the original, and two complete copies of the original Certificate of Title or certified copy of the original. The vehicle must be presented on the day of export at the appropriate port of entry for examination and verification of the VIN. Please be aware that many land ports do not process cars for export on weekends, call ahead to make sure your schedule will conform to the business hours of the port you will be exporting through. This is only required for permanent exportations. If the car is being driven across the border for temporary purposes - the driver is advised to have the registration available to present to CBP on request. These export requirements do not apply to watercraft, including jet skis. For detailed information, please see our vehicle export information.
