Includes import duty: 15% combined rate (2.5% base rate plus the steel-derivative duty), for a car of 1,000 cc or less (HTSUS 8703.21.01, which includes kei cars and passenger kei vans), whatever its age, where steel is at least 15% of the car's weight and less than 85% of that steel was melted and poured in the United States, entered from 8 June 2026 to 31 December 2027 (Section 232 steel-derivative rate, HTS 9903.82.10). Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker. Sources: USITC HTS, heading 8703 (read 2026-11-05); USITC HTS chapter 99, U.S. note 16 and heading 9903.82.10 (read 2026-11-05). Includes import duty: 6.1% most-favoured-nation rate. Free under the CPTPP (CPTPT) rate for a car that qualifies as originating in Japan (a car bought in Japan for personal use can qualify without a certificate of origin under CBSA's casual-goods rules; a car imported for sale or business use needs proof of origin). Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker. Sources: CBSA Customs Tariff 2026 (read 2026-11-05); CBSA Customs Tariff 2026, chapter 87 (read 2026-11-05). Includes import duty: 0% UK-Japan CEPA rate, for a statement on origin from the exporter. 10% without a statement on origin (standard non-preferential rate). Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker. Sources: UK Trade Tariff, heading 8703 (read 2026-11-05). Includes import duty: 0% JAEPA rate, for a Japanese originating car, with origin documentation from the exporter. 5% without origin documentation (general rate on a used car of 1,000 cc or less, tariff 8703.21.11). Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker. Sources: ABF Customs Tariff, Schedule 11 (Japanese originating goods) (read 2026-11-05); ABF Customs Tariff, Schedule 3 (read 2026-11-05). Includes import duty: 0% New Zealand rate on cars. Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker. Sources: New Zealand Customs, Duty and allowances (read 2026-11-05). Excludes import duty: not confirmed for a Japan-built car. Mexico's used-vehicle decree sets 10% only for vehicles built in Mexico, the United States or Canada that are 8 to 9 model years old. We could not confirm the rate, or whether the car can be imported, for a Japan-built car. Duty rates are estimates: confirm with a customs broker.

Smart buyer checklist
Treat this as two groups. Required items protect you from payment loss and fraud — if a seller resists any of them, walk away. Ideal items help you assess the car's condition; when one is missing, factor it into your risk and your offer rather than treating it as automatic fraud.
Required fraud and payment-loss prevention
- Confirm title status. Clean, salvage, rebuilt, or no title — and the title's jurisdiction — should be clear before you wire.
- Confirm the car is importable to your location. That's your homework, not the seller's; if the import path is unclear, step back and verify before paying.
- Read the bill of sale before you wire. "As-is" with no warranty is normal; anything that removes inspection or payment protections is a red flag.
- Use a third-party escrow service; never wire to a personal account. For dealer sales, a wire to the business account named on the invoice is normal; for private-party sales, use escrow.
Ideal vehicle-condition diligence; factor missing items into risk and price
- Ask for the export certificate. If the car was exported from Japan recently, the deregistration document can help confirm provenance and timing.If unavailable: certificates for older imports are often filed away, so absence is a risk signal, not automatic fraud.
- Ask for underbody, engine bay, and rear-quarter photos. Those areas reveal rust and repair work that hero shots can hide.If unavailable: the car may still be in transit or storage; review existing media and ask for fresh shots once it's accessible.
- Consider a third-party pre-purchase inspection (PPI). A specialist inspection can catch issues that change the price.If unavailable: a PPI is often not feasible while the car is still overseas, so price the added uncertainty instead of treating it as proof of fraud.
