How to Buy
Importing a car from Japan is simple. Here's how it works.
- 01
Choose your vehicle
Browse my stock list or tell me what you need – I can also bid for you at Japanese auctions.
- 02
Request a quote
Send a quote request with your destination port. I reply with a CIF / C&F price, usually within 24 hours.
- 03
Receive proforma invoice
Once you confirm, I issue a proforma invoice and reserve the vehicle for you.
- 04
Make payment
Pay by bank transfer (T/T) to IT Plus Japan. As a JUMVEA member we follow Safe Trade practices.
- 05
Shipping
The vehicle is inspected, shipped from Japan, and you receive B/L and export documents.
- 06
Receive your car
Clear your vehicle at the destination port and drive it home. Dream it. Buy it. Drive it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between FOB, C&F and CIF?+
FOB is the vehicle price at the Japanese port. C&F adds ocean freight to your port. CIF adds marine insurance on top of C&F. I'll quote whichever you prefer.
Can you buy a car for me from auction?+
Yes. Send me the make, model, year range and budget. I'll search USS, TAA, ARAI and other auctions, share auction sheets and bid on your behalf.
How do I pay?+
Payment is made by bank transfer (T/T) to IT Plus Japan's company account. Bank details are provided on your proforma invoice. IT Plus Japan is a JUMVEA member and follows Safe Trade practices.
