The fuel level must be below a quarter tank. Photos and videos are taken to document the car’s condition prior to transport.
• Logistics: Once the vehicle is ready, it is securely loaded onto a container, vessel, or aircraft for transportation. Upon arrival at a U.S. port (such as New York, Los Angeles, Miami, or Houston), the vehicle is unloaded and prepared for customs clearance.
• Export and Import Customs: Customs procedures involve submitting an Importer Security Filing (ISF), paying duties, and ensuring the vehicle meets EPA and DOT regulations. We assist in the process, ensuring all paperwork is complete and any applicable fees are paid.
• Vehicle Compliance and Registration: After clearing customs, the vehicle must undergo inspection by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to ensure it meets U.S. safety and emissions standards. Modifications may be required, such as installing emission control devices or altering headlights to comply with local regulations. Once approved, the vehicle is registered, and U.S. license plates are issued.
• Additional Services: We offer additional support, including assistance with insurance, registration, car detailing, modifications, and doorstep delivery.
