Buyer Guides, Not Blog Noise

Practical, decision-ready guides for professional importers. No news, no fluff — just what you need to import vehicles from China with confidence.

The Complete Import Process

The Complete Import Process

From first inquiry to port delivery — every stage of importing vehicles from China, in order.

  • Share your spec and budget; receive matched options with photos and pricing.
  • Approve a unit and sign a milestone-based contract under Hong Kong law.
  • We run a 200+ point inspection you must sign off before loading.
  • Documents are prepared, the vehicle is shipped, and you track every milestone.
  • Clear at your port with the full document set we provide.
RoRo vs. Container Shipping

RoRo vs. Container Shipping

Two ways to ship a vehicle — how to choose based on cost, protection and order size.

  • RoRo (roll-on/roll-off): cheaper and faster for single drivable vehicles.
  • Container: more protection, and lets you ship multiple units or add spare parts.
  • Middle East routes average 25–30 days; Africa routes 35–45 days.
  • We recommend the best method for your order and budget.
Compliance & Certification

Compliance & Certification

The schemes and certificates that vary by country — and how we handle them.

  • GCC: Certificate of Conformity (CoC) and GSO standardization support.
  • Nigeria: SONCAP pre-export inspection coordination.
  • East Africa: PVOC and vehicle age limit guidance per country.
  • We confirm your destination's rules before you place an order.
Costs, Duties & Pricing

Costs, Duties & Pricing

What makes up the landed cost of a vehicle, so you can budget and price accurately.

  • Vehicle price, inland transport, export customs and documentation fees.
  • Ocean freight (RoRo or container) plus cargo insurance options.
  • Destination import duty, VAT and clearance levies — we help estimate these.
  • Milestone payments: typically 30% deposit, balance before shipment.
Vehicle Inspection Checklist

Vehicle Inspection Checklist

What our 200+ point inspection covers — and what you should always verify yourself.

  • Engine, transmission, mileage verification and service history.
  • Spec confirmation against your order (trim, year, color, equipment).
