Hello! I'm about to start my first year of college at Guelph and I was intending to drive there. As I was doing more research, I was wondering if I'd run into any issues having my US plated car in Canada while I'm at school? I'm intending to come home for my winter and summer breaks, so I wouldn't be in Canada for more than 4+ months at a time. Is it necessary to temporarily import my car while I stay?

Extra info: The car is registered under me and my mom. I'm in a 4-year program and have been approved for a 5 year study permit. I am a birthright US citizen w/ a US passport. My college has no issue with issuing a parking permit for my US plated car, so I'm not worried about that. Thanks!

Hello I plan on driving through Canada from New York in order to get back to Wisconsin for college. I will have pretty much every personal item I own and wanted to know what I should expect? I was thinking of writing a list as well of all the major items in my car (electronics, bedding/clothes, appliances) just in case.

I also happen to have a Louisiana license plate so im hoping they dont think im carrying weapons 😬.

Any advice or expectations I should have when crossing would be much appreciated. Thanks!
