Get Business

NAATA receives emails and telephone calls from consumers and dealers looking for vehicles. They are looking for dealers that specialize in cross-border sales because they want to find vehicles in short supply or benefit from price advantages by buying across borders. We refer these inquiries to our members, including Regular Members. We get inquiries every day. Let us steer these potential customers to your front door.

Stay Informed

NAATA sends our regular notices to members to keep them up-to-date on current and future issues about the cross-border vehicle market. We provide members with the information needed to run profitable and effective businesses. Our bulletins cover all issues pertaining to importing and exporting vehicles, including warranty coverage across borders, titling issues, industry trends and statistics, addressing non-export agreements, proper use of nominees, sales tax refunds, manufacturer restrictions on export sales, DOT policy, customs issues, import tariffs, regulation of exporters and importers as vehicle dealers, and much more.

Promote Your Business

NAATA will also help promote your business by including information about your business on our web site, with a link to your own site. Regular Members also have an opportunity to send out a joint media release with NAATA to news outlets across the country (at an additional charge). News releases help to make potential customers and suppliers aware of your services and can generate new sources of long-term business. Also at an additional fee, NAATA will place a banner ad on our web site to attract people to your site and generate new and ongoing business.
