Export Toyota process: from your first message to your port

A used Corolla order moves through six stages: inquiry, matching units and quotation, order confirmation, inspection, shipping, and after-sales service. In-stock vehicles can ship within 10 working days after payment; transit to your port or border comes on top.

Our service process

  1. 1

    Inquiry

    You send the model year or age limit, hybrid or petrol, mileage range, quantity and destination — by WhatsApp, email or the form.

  2. 2

    Matching units

    We send real photos, video and documents of cars that match, and quote FOB China or CIF your port.

  3. 3

    Order confirmation

    We issue a Proforma Invoice (PI). Payment terms are agreed and written on the PI before you pay.

  4. 4

    Inspection

    Each car is inspected and its VIN matched to its documents; export compliance and customs clearance are handled in China.

  5. 5

    Shipping

    Container, Ro-Ro or overland truck. You receive a photo or video at each milestone and the shipping documents.

  6. 6

    After-sales service

    We stay your contact after delivery for follow-up questions and repeat orders.

FOB or CIF: which should you choose?

  • FOB (Free On Board) — we clear the car for export and load it on the vessel in China; you book and pay the sea freight. Choose it if you already have a forwarder.
  • CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight) — we also pay sea freight and insurance to your named port. Choose it for a first order or a single, all-in price.
  • Under both rules the risk passes to you once the goods are on board in China. Both are defined in the ICC’s Incoterms 2020. For overland routes to Central Asia we quote delivered to the border or your city.

What should be on your Proforma Invoice?

  • Each car’s VIN, model year, trim, colour and odometer reading
  • Quantity and unit price
  • Incoterm with named port, e.g. “CIF Tema, Incoterms 2020”
  • Payment terms and bank details
  • Shipping method and estimated departure
  • The shipping and customs documents you will receive

If your country, bank or buyer needs a specific certificate or pre-shipment inspection, tell us before the PI is issued so it can be included.

Container, Ro-Ro or overland

Containers protect the paint and let you mix models in one box; Ro-Ro vessels carry cars driven on board; car-carrier trucks reach Central Asia overland. For container orders we help optimise loading to save on shipping costs. Shipping fee and delivery date are negotiated for each order.

How long does the whole process take?

In-stock vehicles: shipment can be arranged within 10 working days after payment. Custom or specific models depend on sourcing and preparation. Sea transit time depends on the route; ask sales for a confirmed timeline to your port.

Who pays import duty?

The buyer, under both FOB and CIF, unless agreed otherwise in writing. Check current rates with your clearing agent — our market notes link to the relevant authorities.

Can I order a single car first?

Yes. The minimum order is 1 unit, and trial orders are welcome for new partners.

Ready for a quote?

We will quote both FOB and CIF so you can compare.
