Our comprehensive guide walks you through the entire vehicle import process, from browsing auctions in Japan to receiving your car.
Find your perfect car using our live auction portal. Review the auction sheet and photos to understand the condition before bidding.
Our team provides a cost estimate covering all fees. Once you are ready, we send a formal sales agreement for you to sign.
To secure the vehicle, a 10% CIF purchase deposit is paid to our local Ksh or USD account. This is fully refundable if the auction is unsuccessful.
We bid on the vehicle up to your maximum budget. If we win, the car is moved to the yard where photos are shared for your review.
Upon yard arrival, 40% CIF is remitted to Japan. The final 50% CIF is remitted before the vessel docks in the Port of Mombasa.
When the vessel arrives, our agents handle port clearance. You will pay the import duty directly to the KRA.
Once registered, you pay the local balance (Clearance & Transport) in Ksh and collect your new vehicle from our delivery center.
