Car shipping to Japan
We ship vehicles to Japan — RoRo or container
Japan is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the Port of Yokohama. We recommend the most economical method for your car’s value and the arrival port, and prepare the entry documents before departure, not after the vehicle arrives.
- RoRo: The vehicle drives on by its own wheels — the most economical for used cars.
- Container: Secured with four straps and chocks under the tyres — more protective for luxury and classic cars.
- Triptyque: Temporary-entry procedures and release documents ready before shipping.
About this route
What sets shipping to Japan apart
The nature of the route
By sea to the ports of Yokohama and Kobe, and by air to Tokyo and Osaka for the urgent.
What its customs look at
Japan drives on the left, but allows left-hand-drive cars to be registered. An imported car goes through an exacting technical inspection before licensing. The belongings of someone relocating enter on an unaccompanied baggage declaration made on arrival.
What we ship there most
- Relocation and students’ effects
- Classic and luxury cars
- Commercial goods
- Belongings
A tip from experience
Make the unaccompanied baggage declaration at the airport when you arrive. Without it your shipment is treated as a commercial import.
