Why Import from Japan?

Japan is one of the best places to source high-quality used and new vehicles due to its meticulous maintenance culture, strict roadworthiness laws, and wide selection of cars. Whether you're looking for a JDM classic, a fuel-efficient daily driver, or a high-performance sports car, Japan's extensive dealer networks and auction houses offer something for everyone. However, navigating the process of purchasing and importing a car can be complex. This is where Zervtek comes in.

How Zervtek Simplifies the Process

At Zervtek, we handle everything from sourcing your ideal vehicle to delivering it to your chosen destination port. With extensive experience in Japanese exports and a deep understanding of international import regulations, we make the process seamless and transparent. Here's how we do it:

Sourcing Vehicles from Japanese Dealer Network

Japanese dealers stock a vast range of vehicles, many in excellent condition with low mileage. Through our trusted network of dealers, we can find cars that meet your exact requirements whether it's a pristine JDM classic or a reliable daily driver.

  • We communicate with dealers in Japan on your behalf, ensuring you get the best selection available.
  • We verify vehicle authenticity and condition before proceeding with the purchase.
  • If a suitable vehicle isn't found in the dealer network, we also have access to Japan's leading auction houses, increasing your chances of securing the perfect car.

Get the Best Deal

Zervtek doesn't just act as a middleman; we get wholesale (JDM) pricing from Japanese dealers to secure the best possible price for our clients. Thanks to our established relationships and local expertise, our listings are often deals that individual buyers in Japan wouldn't have access to.

  • We leverage market insights to ensure you pay a fair and competitive price.
  • We prevent overpaying by verifying the vehicle's market value.
  • We provide a full breakdown of costs, so there are no hidden fees.
  • We get the wholesale pricing off the bat, wholesale prices that are reserved for dealers and are unavailable to general consumers.

All-Inclusive Pricing Quotations

We believe in transparency. That's why we offer all-inclusive pricing quotations, which cover everything up to the destination port. The quote will include:

  • Vehicle price - Includes the cost of Purchase, where we can get our customers the best wholesale pricing available only to dealers, the cost of transporting the vehicle to the port, and storage fees till the vehicle is shipped out.
  • Export fees - All the paperwork and formalities for the exportation.
  • Shipping costs - Freight and insurance up to the destination port.
  • Inspection and compliance fees (if applicable) - Countries like Kenya require a JEVIC inspection, while Australia & New Zealand require a DAFF/MART cleaning before vehicles are exported from Japan.

What's included in the car price?

Vehicle Price + Shipping = Total price up to the Destination

  • Purchase of vehicle
  • Translation of Auction Sheets
  • Inland Transportation

This means no unexpected costs, just a clear breakdown of what you're paying for.

Shipping and Logistics

Once your vehicle has been purchased, we handle the entire export process, including:

  • 1

    Documentation

    We arrange all necessary export documents are correctly filed and clear customs in Japan.

  • 2

    Shipping

    We arrange shipping via container or RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) based on your preference and budget.

  • 3

    Tracking

    We keep you updated throughout the shipping process until the car reaches the destination port.

Vehicle Sourcing from Japanese Auctions

If you can't find the right vehicle through our dealer network, auctions are another excellent option. Japan has one of the largest car auction networks in the world, offering a vast selection of vehicles at competitive prices.

Our Auction Process

  • We bid on cars that match your criteria and stay within your budget.
  • We provide full auction sheet translations and pre-auction vehicle inspections.
  • We manage the entire bidding, payment, and shipping process seamlessly.

Our Auction Services

We handle the entire process for you in a hassle-free and transparent manner so you're not inundated with additional worries or hidden costs.

First, we collaborate with you to select the perfect vehicle based on your preferences and budget. To participate, a refundable deposit of 100,000 yen is required, which is deducted from the final invoice upon a successful bid.
