We all know that the cars are exported and imported all around the globe. The cars that are manufactured in the USA are being exported to many countries because of their never ending demand all over the world.

While importing the used cars from the USA to Jamaica, the owners should be well aware of the rules and regulations of this government such as:

• The individual residents such as both the residents and non-residents of this country can import two motor vehicles, one motorcar and the other one light commercial vehicle. The gap between importing the vehicles from the same owner should be a minimum of three years.
