T&T: Canadian Purchase

[john butts]

I can also verify from my past experience that if duty was paid in the US
and then the vessel was brought into Canada it is subject to 9% duty and
then Federal and Provincial tax is applied to the total value of the boat
I have kept the US documented papers to show that duty has been paid, in
case the vessel is resold into the US under a different vessel name.
I assume the reverse would not have duty applied for the second time.

One important note is that you need to determine where the boat was
manufactured. If it is built in Canada or the USA, it is covered under the
North American Free Trade Act and will be duty-free. If it is not (e.g.
built
in Taiwan or Europe) you will owe duty.
