United States Auto Import Policy

Before you decide to import any vehicle into US, you must know about Auto Import Policy of United States of America. As Unique Vehicles is engaged in importing Japanese Used Vehicles only so we have provided information about JDM Vehicles Import in this section. 

Imported motor vehicles are subject to safety standards under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, revised under the Imported Vehicle Safety Compliance Act of 1988; to bumper standards under the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act of 1972, which became effective in 1978; and to air pollution control standards under the Clean Air Act of 1968, as amended in 1977, and 1990.

Regulations governing the importation of motor vehicles manufactured outside of the U.S and that do not conform to U.S Safety and Emission standards, in the first instance, are dependent on the age of the vehicle. While there are stringent safety and emissions requirements that must be met by vehicles under 25 years old, if you are importing a car that is over 25 years old it qualifies for exemption from regulations governing both safety and emissions standards. 

So good news for those who are interested in importation of 25 years Japanese used vehicles into US. They can do it without any issue.
