How much does it cost to import a car from Japan ?
The total cost will depend on car purchase price, your location, vehicle size, import taxes, clearance costs and compliance procedures.
Your costs will include:
-
Car purchase price
-
Export agent fee (varies depending on car price – includes inspection, purchase, transport to Port, deregistration procedures, export paperwork and postage of original documents)
-
Shipping (roll on / roll off or container)
-
Import taxes, Customs, Quarantine and clearance charges
-
Transport from the Port
-
Compliance procedures for imported cars
-
Normal licensing and registration costs
I have gone over the car (2002 Supra RZ twin turbo 6 speed manual) in detail and am satisfied that it is a genuinely good vehicle. A friend visiting from Japan translated much of the maintenance paperwork, it seems to have been really well maintained over the years by Toyota, kms are genuine and it is in very good mechanical condition. In fact it looks new now that all the small dings have been removed by the paintless method. We’ll see what’s next!
Your service was very much appreciated, I understand that you needed to extend yourself beyond the norm to put this deal together under the circumstances, for that I am grateful.
Thanks again for your service.
