Hey everyone -
My husband and I landed in Vancouver earlier this year. We imported our vehicle and paid both provincial and federal taxes at the border. When we went to ICBC to insure the vehicle (after it got inspected at Canadian Tire) they told us we had to pay provincial tax again, and that there had been a mistake at the border. Apparently you are only supposed to pay federal taxes at the border, but they charged us for both.
Has anyone else run into this? The agent at ICBC said we would need to take it up with the border officials, any idea how to do that?
Fortunately, the vehicle is only has a blue book value of 1,400 but still, I don't like being taxed twice - any suggestions would be great!
