Can the VW T5 California now be imported into the US?

As of October 2023, the VW T5 California cannot be directly imported into the US due to compliance with specific safety and emissions regulations set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Transportation (DOT). Vehicles not originally manufactured for the US market must meet these standards to be legally imported. However, some individuals may seek to import a T5 California through a registered importer who can modify the vehicle to meet US regulations, though this process can be complex and costly. Always check the latest regulations and consult with import specialists for the most accurate guidance.
