For several years MOST vehicles sold in Canada have been 50 state

Nothing matters other than whether or not the sticker says "California".
Does anyone on this ng live outside of California?

It's not about emissions. It's about money. It's about abuse of power.

You can _never_ register a vehicle in California if they know you bough it
o Either with fewer than 7,500 miles on the odometer, or,
o If it was less than 2 years old at the time of purchase.

Period.
That's the law.
(There are minor exceptions, e.g., divorce, theft, catastrophe, etc.)

The only answer to this question that is relevant is:
o Do you reside in the USA but OUTSIDE the state of California?
o If so, does your emissions sticker literally say "California", or not?

I'm in Ontario and my 2014 Kia Sorento says "california emissions"

NOTE: The cite is clear that if the emissions sticker doesn't literally
say California on that sticker, then that vehicle can't be registered under
the conditions stated above.
