Car and truck in the U.S.
Posted date : Aug 2, 2023.
Can you leave your RV and/or car in the U.S. for longer than six months?
I’ve read that a Canadian RV/car which is insured in Canada, cannot be left in the U.S. for longer than six months. I know many who leave their RV/car in the U.S. and take out insurance through a state insurance company. Is there a way to leave your RV/car in the U.S. and be fully insured?

Ed.: If your car, truck or RV is titled and registered in Canada, it cannot remain in the United States for longer than 12 months. Otherwise, it will be considered a vehicle illegally imported into the United States, which will void your Canadian insurance policy. If you want to insure a vehicle in the United States, it has to be registered in a state and insured by an insurance company licensed to sell insurance in that state.
