Choosing the right car — and the right exporter
Two questions decide most outcomes in this trade: which car suits your market, and whether the company selling it is who it says it is. Our import guides cover process and paperwork; this section covers selection and credentials.

Checkable, not promotional
Verifiable by default
We publish our Unified Social Credit Code and tell you exactly where to look it up. A claim you cannot check is not worth much in cross-border trade.
Numbers with ranges
Where a figure depends on route, market or season, we say so and give the range — then quote the actual number per shipment.
We will tell you no
If petrol suits your market better than the cheap EV you were eyeing, we say petrol. The right car sells; the wrong one sits on your forecourt.
