The platform has strict internal outbound inspections. If buyers need, we can assist you in commissioning an independent third-party evaluation agency (such as Cha Doctor, Dongche Di official testing, etc.) for re-inspection, with costs borne by the buyer. An independent report can provide more credibility for your local resale.

RoRo (roll-on/roll-off): the cheapest per car for running vehicles. Cars are driven onto the vessel and secured on decks. Transit to major ports (Jebel Ali, Rotterdam, Karachi) takes 15 to 35 days. Downside: cars are exposed to weather and salt air, and minor handling scratches happen occasionally. Container (20ft/40ft): one 40ft high-cube fits one car with parts, or two small cars with racking. Cost is higher than RoRo but cars are sealed and protected. Best for high-value vehicles, EVs (battery safety rules often require container), or when shipping spare parts together. Flat rack: for oversized vehicles (trucks, buses, modified cars). Priced per dimensions. Practical advice: for a standard used car to a port with RoRo service, choose RoRo and add marine insurance (0.3%–0.8% of value). If your destination lacks RoRo calls or you ship an EV, use a container. Always get the booking confirmation and bill of lading copy before paying the final balance.

Plan for the car price plus roughly 25–50% in additional costs, depending on destination: 1. Inland transport in China (car city to export port): USD 300–700. 2. Export fees: inspection, customs declaration, port handling — USD 300–600. 3. Ocean or rail freight: a shared container to the Middle East or Africa runs USD 800–1,500; a full container or RoRo varies by route. 4. Destination charges: unloading, customs duties, VAT and port fees — this is the biggest variable. Some countries add 50%+ in taxes on used imports. 5. Compliance costs: homologation, inspection, registration in your country. 6. Currency and payment costs: wire fees and exchange margins of 1–3%. Always ask the exporter for a written cost breakdown listing every item and who pays it, then confirm the destination-side numbers with a local customs agent before committing.
