How To Import A Car From Japan To Australia

Our Seamless Japanese Car Import Process

Purchase Your Dream Car

Most clients seeking car compliance have already purchased their import car and are just looking for our compliance plate service. If you haven’t purchased a car yet, call us or browse our list of vehicles that we can Import From Japan.

Vehicle Import Approval (VIA) Permit

Prior to shipping the vehicle out of Japan, we need to organise a Vehicle Import Approval (VIA) permit. Australian Border Force Customs Control will not release a vehicle unless it has a Vehicle Import Approval.

Ship The Car

Once you’ve obtained the Vehicle Import Approval (VIA) Permit, you’ll need to ship your import car to Australia. You can arrange your own vehicle shipping from Japan or contact us, and we’ll efficiently handle the logistics for you.

Receive The Car

After customs clears your car, it will need delivery to our compliance centre for the Vehicle Compliance Inspection. You have the choice to arrange your own transportation, or we can conveniently organise towing to our workshop for you.

Compliance Plate & Certificate

We organize a detailed Vehicle Compliance Check on your car. Upon successful completion, it receives a Vehicle Compliance Plate and a Certificate Of Compliance.

Roadworthy & Registration

After we complete the compliance process, we can further streamline your experience by arranging a roadworthiness assessment and registration. You can pick up your fully registered, roadworthy car and immediately enjoy it.

List Of Cars Approved For Import

We have 200+ cars on our list that we have approval to import immediately.
If the car you’re looking for is not on the list, please contact us and we will let you know if it can be imported.
