This vehicle is 1 year old, with a relatively short usage period and an average annual mileage of 12,500 kilometers. It is a typical family vehicle used daily, and has never been transferred to another owner, making it a good first-hand car. The exterior is in excellent condition, with a glossy paint finish but some minor scratches. The interior is clean and tidy, with minor signs of use. The overall body frame is intact, but there are a few minor abnormalities. The fluid levels are normal, and the powertrain operates smoothly without any issues.
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.
Plan for roughly 25-40% on top of the vehicle price. The main items are: 1. Pre-purchase: deposit (10-30%), third-party inspection fee (100-300 USD). 2. In China: inland trucking to the port, export declaration fees. 3. Shipping: ocean freight (container 20ft usually 1,500-4,000 USD depending on destination), marine insurance (about 0.3-0.5% of car value). 4. In your country: customs duty, VAT/GST, port handling and storage, customs broker, quarantine or pre-shipment inspection if required, registration and plates. Always ask the exporter for an itemized landed-cost estimate for your specific port before paying the deposit, and confirm which Incoterm the quote is based on (FOB, CIF or DDP makes a big difference).
Yes, but this falls under EXW (Ex Works) terms. In this case, the seller's risk transfers at the moment the goods are ready at the warehouse. Any subsequent domestic trucking accidents, customs inspections at the port, or issues with obtaining export licenses will be fully borne by your designated freight forwarder.
