Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Denver, Colorado to Toronto, Ontario

Importing a car from the US to Canada costs several hundred to a few thousand dollars, covering RIV fees, federal/provincial taxes (GST/HST/PST), potential duties (6.1% or 25% depending on origin/trade status), and inspection/modification costs, plus shipping (~$500-$2,500). Expect fees for the Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) around $300 CAD, plus ~5% GST/HST, provincial sales tax, and potential $100 AC tax, green levy, or luxury tax, all adding significantly to the total.

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

The Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) facilitates vehicle imports to Canada. You'll need to verify your car's eligibility on the RIV website. Generally, vehicles from the United States are more likely to meet Canadian standards compared to those imported from other countries.
