you. Importing a car to Australia is no small
thing and can be a complicated process
particularly if you choose the personal import
method. Importing a vehicle is much more than
just shipping it from one country to another.
There are many things to consider before getting
started, the most important being how to obtain a
Vehicle Import Approval and which import method
to use.

Whether you are importing a car from Japan, the
United States (USA), England (UK), Ireland,
Europe, Hong Kong (HK), Singapore, New Zealand
(NZ), South Africa or any other country to
Australia, it is critical to ensure the process
is carried out correctly. We arrange / advise on
shipping, personal car import approval
applications, airconditioning degas, valuations,
Customs and Quarantine clearance, compliance and
registration. The cost and process of personal
car import to Australia varies depending on the
type of vehicle and the best vehicle import
method for your situation. Personal car imports
(owned and used by you for more than 12 months
overseas) require a considerable amount of
paperwork before and after shipping. This can be
daunting for someone who has never imported a car
before and there are many pitfalls to
avoid. Like any new undertaking, the risk of
inexperienced vehicle importers being overcharged
or making an expensive mistake on procedure /
paperwork is high. This is where the experience
of good vehicle import agent (or car broker)
can really help. Best of all, reduced shipping
and compliance rates available to our clients
will usually cover most or all of our fee.

Japan for example requires four official pieces
of paperwork before your car can be exported. We
assist you with everything you require to speed
up the process in Japan and avoid any confusion.
We also organise the transport within Japan,
shipping to Australia and clearance through
Australian Customs and Quarantine, leaving you to
focus on the move itself. Note that personal
effects (household items) inside vehicles are
often not accepted by shipping companies (and
loose items present a security risk), so if you
have a large number of items to ship back with
you it is likely to be more cost effective to
ship your car in a container rather than roll on
/ roll off (roro) car carrying ship. In terms of
total cost, we also need to consider which
country you are shipping from, and where you are
located within that country relative to
the nearest Port. In addition to shipping and
agent fees, there are of course import taxes
and registration costs to consider.

Sometimes when you work it all out, the final
cost may not be worth the end value of the
vehicle in Australia. This will mostly affect
vehicles with a relatively low cost. We are happy
to advise you on the likely costs to help you
decide whether it is worth importing your vehicle
to Australia. Contact us for an obligation free

Please include the make, model and year of the
vehicle, your location, timeframe, and any other
relevant considerations so we can best advise you.
