Looking for advice on buying a motorhome in Canada to travel across the Americas

Terresco · 2026-06-01

Hi there,

I hope my first post on this forum is in the right section.

I’m planning a trip between 3 and 5 years in a motorhome across the Americas, mostly from north to south, but I’m flexible.

My question is about buying the vehicle. I’ve looked into several options, like bringing one from Europe, but I’d prefer to buy on the continent. Specifically, at this early stage, I’m considering Canada. I was wondering if anyone has done this recently and could share some advice.

My main concern, as a French citizen living in France, is whether I can buy a vehicle in Canada, register it, and insure it?

I’d appreciate any additional information, especially regarding the administrative side of things for the vehicle.

Best regards
