Certification; Importation of Vehicles and Equipment Subject to Federal Safety, Bumper and Theft Prevention Standards; Registered Importers of Vehicles Not Originally Manufactured To Conform With the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Schedule of Fees Authorized by 49 U.S.C. 30141

Zusammenfassung

This document proposes to amend regulations that pertain to the importation by registered importers (RIs) of motor vehicles that were not manufactured to comply with all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety, bumper, and theft prevention standards. The principal effect of these changes would be to expedite the importation of vehicles originally manufactured for sale in Canada. These proposals would require corresponding minor amendments to other regulations, which we are also proposing. We are also proposing a number of changes in requirements for RI registration applications, RI duties, and suspension or revocation of RI registrations (49 CFR part 592). We are also proposing an amendment of our fee regulation, 49 CFR part 594, to add a new fee for processing the information that we would require from RI's who import motor vehicles from Canada under the simplified procedure we are proposing.
