Inspection

No specific inspection is required on the import of used vehicles. However, in order to import vehicles into South Africa, you will need a letter of authority and an import permit from the South Africa Bureau of Standards (SABS). 

Import Duties and Taxes on Used Cars in South Africa

  • Vehicles up to 20 years old are subjected to tax at the rate of 30%

  • Vehicles older than 20 years are subjected to tax at the rate of 20% 

  • Ad valorem duty tax may also be applied from 0.75 to 20% depending upon the age and value of the vehicle 

  • VAT is charged at the rate of 15%

Customs Clearance & Registration Process

Documents needed for customs clearance and vehicle registration are:

  1. Cancellation Certificate [both in Japanese & in English].
  2. Bill of Lading [Original 1st & 2nd].
  3. Commercial Invoice.
  4. Letter of Authorization [The letter confirming that you are giving legal rights to the clearing agent to act on your behalf].
  5. Identification Document, for example, a Passport.

Step 1:

The documents from 1-3 (Cancellation Certificate, Bill of Lading, and Invoice) mentioned above will be sent to you via DHL. Please prepare the letter of authorization and identification document yourself.

Step 2:

Prepare for the local customs clearance. You can reach out to us to get guidance on how to avail our customs clearance service or also arrange your own preferred agent.

Step 3:

Besides customs clearance, there will also be a process for duty and tax payment, police check for registration, and a roadworthiness check to obtain a number plate. A local clearing agent in South Africa will be helpful for these procedures.

To import a foreign-registered vehicle into South Africa, you need an Import Permit and a Letter of Authority from the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS). While used vehicles are generally prohibited, exceptions are made for collector’s items, such as classic cars or racing cars (e.g., Nissan GT-R).
