Fake or recycled inspection reports are a real risk. Verify authenticity before wiring the balance payment. First, match the VIN: the report must show the full VIN, and the photos must include close-ups of the VIN plate on the chassis and the windshield tag. Ask for a live video call where the inspector walks to the car, shows the VIN tag, and then pans across the dashboard, odometer, and any defects noted in the report—on the same call. Check metadata: ask for original photos rather than screenshots. Files sent via WeChat often strip EXIF, so request the inspector to email originals or use a cloud link where timestamps and GPS data are visible. Cross-verify details: the odometer reading in the video should match the report exactly, and paint-thickness readings should be reproducible—ask the inspector to re-measure 2-3 spots live. Use a known inspection company rather than one recommended solely by the seller, and pay the inspector directly. An independent inspector has no incentive to hide defects.

A Certificate of Origin (CO) is an official document stating where the vehicle was manufactured. For imports from China, it matters more than many buyers expect. First, customs value: many countries apply duty rates based on the country of manufacture, not where you bought the car. A CO proves the vehicle is Chinese-built, which determines the correct tariff line—skipping it can mean reassessment, fines, or seizure at destination. Second, trade agreements: some countries have preferential tariffs for Chinese goods that only apply with a valid CO. Request a CO issued by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) or China Customs, not a self-printed form. Check that the VIN, engine number, and buyer details match your purchase documents exactly. Make receiving the CO a condition before your final payment, and keep the original—customs at destination will ask for it.
