As for nationalizing the other vehicles, you might want to try a keyword search in google with nacionalizacion autos mexico and that should bring up some companies that deal in nationalizing vehicles, but I saw this one one of the sites, atlantis nacionalizacion autos importacion regularizacion vehiculos nacionalizacion vans
It appears to depend strongly on where the car was built (U.S., Mexico or Canada is a requisite) and only certain year(s), I think this year it is 1999 models only.
You're going to get a better answer from one of those companies than you will here. |
Thanks for the info.
This is what I know:
A Mexican who lives along the border can import a car or truck purchased in the U.S. that is more than four years old and less than $12,000 in value. There are other limitations, fees, taxes, etc.
However, a Mexican who lives in the interior can import only a pickup truck purchased in the U.S. that is at least ten years old. It must be exported from the U.S.--a three-day process-- and then imported into Mexico. The truck cannot be too big, used for commercial purposes, gasoline engine, etc. Taxes and fees and brokers are involved.
So I will continue to find a way to import my old cars -- permanently. A couple of my Mexican friends say it is possible for cars that are 40 years old or older. We'll see.
Thanks!
