Oh, do you mean VAT or equivalent that the buyer would pay if they were Canadian? In my case (BC), the transaction was just like if it were in a US state - I only pay taxes to my home state (IL in my case) when I register it. When I bought the car, we went to the ICBC office with a bill of sale and transferred ownership out of his name and that was it. Plates stayed with the car (Historic plates, only ones BC issues that always stay with the car), I got paper temp plates for 24 hours just for CYA and I drove it home. In general it is almost universal in western countries that a foreign citizen buying something like a car to take back to their country does not have to pay local tax.
