DISCUSSIONS-
This category must have name and/or email address.
a. Answer to Quad import question:
Yes, to your question. No, I did not pay import duty nor did they
ask. An ATV brought down as a recreational vehicle registered in the
USA or CAN can be used here, If you ride on the roads it should be
licensed, most do not. You cannot sell it to a MX resident without
importing.
