The car is in good condition; it has been claimed 4 times and transferred ownership 2 times.
This vehicle is 5 years old, with an average annual mileage of 21,700 kilometers. It has been used frequently and has been transferred to other owners twice, which is relatively few. The overall exterior condition is excellent, with no scratches on the wheels and no damage to the glass. There are no signs of repainting on up to four sides of the exterior metal panels, but no parts have been disassembled or replaced. The steering wheel and buttons are free of wear, and the interior and seats are clean and new with no odor. All features and functions are in good working order. The vehicle frame is undamaged and has not been repaired. The powertrain is functioning well without any repairs. There are no major modifications.
No, this is a serious customs violation. Complete vehicles (HS Code 8703) and auto parts (HS Code 8708, etc.) are subject to completely different import tax rates. Combining them on one invoice could lead to the invoice being returned by customs and may expose you to tax fraud accusations at the destination port.
No, it is absolutely impossible to get a refund. Not only will there be no refund, but if the proceeds from the port auction of the abandoned cargo are insufficient to cover the exorbitant demurrage and disposal fees, the shipping company and customs will still pursue you (the bill of lading recipient) for the remaining debt through international legal proceedings.
Be sure to verify the draft Bill of Lading as soon as possible after the ship departs. Once the original is issued, changes will incur high amendment fees and may prevent the customer from picking up the goods.
