The "usage type" section on the vehicle registration certificate has legal validity. Any vehicle that changes from "commercial" to "non-commercial" has a usage intensity far exceeding that of personal vehicles, and we will label these prominently. Such vehicles are usually cheaper but have more severe mechanical wear.

RoRo ships usually charge based on the vehicle's volume (length x width x height, calculated in CBM) in tiers; container shipping has a fixed compartment price. We will calculate which method is the most economical for the current sailing.

A proper pre-shipment inspection is more than photos — it is a documented technical examination covering four areas. 1. Structure: paint thickness readings across the body, weld inspection of pillars and chassis rails, rust assessment underneath. 2. Mechanical: engine compression or at least a cold-start video, transmission shifts through all gears, suspension noise test on uneven roads, brake pad and disc thickness measurements. 3. Electronics: full OBD diagnostic scan with printed fault codes, all lights, windows, AC, infotainment, and driver-assistance functions tested. 4. Documentation: VIN and engine number physically matched to the registration certificate, photos of the certificate itself. Insist on a written report with photos, measured values, and a clear pass/fail conclusion per section. Make final payment conditional on this report, not on the seller's word or showroom-condition photos.
