Vehicle importation to Ecuador-

[FRANK AGIATO]

Is there a reason why I can’t bring a vehicle to Ecuador along with my household items?

[SUZAN HASKINS]

It is not allowed. Not sure why…

Susan, thanks for the quick response! Early this morning while at Topix.com Forum I found a post 7/2010 American Gringos: Retiring in Ecuador (post# 11, 1/10/11). It spoke about this very subject and the author gave alot of info on the subject and that you should bring your vehicle to Ecuador and that it should be a new one. I sent a response to this because I had read the opposite in IL posts. I also asked a slew of questions related to this subject. Hope I get a response. Thanks again!

Frank, let us know what you hear. I’ve never heard of anyone doing this.

Susan, sure I’d be happy to let you know. Thanks.

Susan Haskins- I found info on this at http://ecuadorrealestate.org/how-to-import-a-car-to-ecuador
I tried sending a synopsis of the article here but got an error asking me “Are you sure you wanted to do that?” I don’t see a problem with what I sent. Please check it out and advise, if you can. What was the error for? Incidently, there was a large list of different Ecuador articles offering info on manyy topics at this site.

Frank, I will check it out — and no worries, that response comes up now and then when you try to post something here. Some kind of gremlin. I get one that says “Slow down, you move too fast.” weird…
