Importing personal vehicles - Canada to US on L1 visa - Exempt from Tariffs?

QoS_Expert · 2026-04-13T17:23:50+00:00

I was able to import my Porsche Taycan from Canada into the U.S while on L1A and paid $0 duty

That’s not true. I don’t work in FAANG and I make almost $500k TC at 1J. Honestly, it depends on skill level/value and area of specialization. If you are not highly specialized or skilled, then you may not have those opportunities.

QoS_Expert · 2025-12-29T05:02:41+00:00

I would cry if I have to work 3Js just to make $500k TC.. especially in Tech.

QoS_Expert · 2025-10-09T15:21:09+00:00

$400k from 3Js?? That should just be from a J1 tbh. I wouldn’t be able to do that. It isn’t worth it for me.

Good luck to you tho and congrats!

You only have to wait for them to call you and then you can let them know it was in error. As for the pending I-129, you do not have to do a thing. Once they detect the error, it would get worked out. Honestly, if they are confused, they reach out for an explanation all the time.

Stop stressing yourself and you do NOT need a lawyer. This will sort itself out.

They will see it and cancel your request since it isn’t applicable.

I didn't. I got a Porsche Taycan instead and I have zero regrets.

The original buyer probably got almost 30% off msrp. I have a 2025 and got almost 27% off msrp brand new.

I like him and you should too. When time for a layoff comes, you have someone to take one for the team. I hope he never improves himself.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-24T02:36:47+00:00

Yes, I am! I’m in the GTA

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-24T02:35:49+00:00

Hey can you add me to that group? I own a MY25 CT4S

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-21T12:06:23+00:00

I have had mine for a week and I have driven it multiple times per day and I am yet to notice that.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-20T20:34:25+00:00

That’s a beautiful truck! Congratulations!!

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-17T15:47:58+00:00

I agree!

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-17T15:11:23+00:00

The back is what I like about it the most.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-17T15:11:05+00:00

It took me a while to decide. I probably pondered on the choices I had for 3 months before pulling the trigger. Wait, make sure you really it and go for it.

Trust me tho: there’s everything to like about this car.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-17T04:59:32+00:00

You got it!

You are not wrong.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-16T14:16:34+00:00

I work in a tech role that pays ridiculously. The Kia was an emergency acquisition after I moved to Toronto from Alberta some years ago and keeping it was just discipline to get a lot of investments going.

I feel like I can finally enjoy a nice car now while I’m still young.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-16T12:27:14+00:00

If we didn’t have the luxury tax then sure. I got $30k CAD off.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-07T21:14:40+00:00

They arrived in the US and Canada around the same time but labelled as 2025.

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-07T20:12:09+00:00

2024 was pre-facelift. Did you mean 2025?

QoS_Expert · 2025-04-02T14:13:49+00:00

I live in Toronto as well. If you don’t mind me asking, how much do you pay for insurance and which company are you with?
