Can a british citizen with a british passport buy a car in Canada?
|
We are looking to travel Canada for three months and want to buy a little old car to do it instead of paying thousands on rental vehicles. Is it possible for a british citizen with a UK driving licence to buy and insure a car in Canada?

you have to pay for insurance, and you cannot drive without insurance and you will need either an international license or to apply for or sit the test for a canadian license.
Also licenes are issued by the province, so I dont know if the insurance company will cover you (as a new driver) in other provinces - especally if you are involved in an accident. You will have to contact the insurance company and ask about that.
If you do apply for a canadian license, then you MUST submit an official copy of your driving record, from your insurance company that says how long you have been driving - preferably since the DL was originally issued.
The current licenses only list the date of renewal, not originally issued.
Please remember that Canada drives on the right and it does take a few years to totally get used to it. You are more likely to have an accident - especially if you drive when you are tired.
I know this from experience. I moved from NZ (drives on the left) to Canada (on the right) and it took me 2 or 3 years to become totally comfortable with driving on the wrong side. |

I do not know how it works in Canada exactly, but in most countries on earth you must be a resident and proof residency to be able to register a car, obtain the required insurance, or get the needed cards to pay tax for the vehicle.
I do not think that you will be able to buy and register a car just on a visitor status, without being a resident of that country. |
