- Under FOB contract, it is a rule that the buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements.
Please inform us the shipping company of your choice.
If you want us to make arrangements for shipping, inform us so. As a customer service we can make arrangements for shipping.
- When it's fully booked, it will be booked on the next ship. In some cases you will need to wait for a few months.
- Ocean freight depends on the Car Volume.
car length x width x height = Car volume = Cubic Meters = CBM = C/M = M3
e.g. : COROLLA sedan = 4.365M x 1.695M x 1.480M = 10.95 M3
- Strictly speaking, ocean freight is calculated as follows:
Base Rate + Other Charges + Heavy Lift Charges + Length Charges = Subtotal
Subtotal x (BAF%+CAF%) = Actual Freight
(CAF:currency adjustment factor) (BAF:banker adjustment factor)
- As to areas like Micronesia where there's less frequent vessels, about 100% BAF/CAF may be added.
- Our car price is FOB.
- Marine Insurance Charge is not included in car price.
If insurance is needed, we suggest you to insure against your car. Then this will become C&F(Cost and Freight).
If we insure against your car, it will become CIF(Cost, Insurance and Freight).
- As to areas such as Africa and the Carribean Sea, it must be C&F or CIF, otherwise some shipping companies may not transport.
- Shipping charge is decided based on the exchange rate at the time of loading, so there's a little difference according to the rate.
- Freight differ according to shipping companies and are subject to change often, so we advice you to confirm with the shipping company for correct freight.
- Ship schedule often changes too.

| Marine Insurance |
We ship with FOB. Ususally we do not insure on used cars.
Reason is because percentage of marine accidents are low and B/L covers to some extent.
Used cars cannot be insured against A/R (All Risks) in Japan.
If you wish the car to be insured we suggest you to do it in your country.
If there should be an accident, we contact the insurance company (claim agent) to do the insurance claim procedures, but it would be convenient to handle in your country where the car is to arrive at the port. In general, insurance rate in Japanese insurance company is higher than any other country.
F.P.A. insurance fee is approx. USD27.00 - USD50.00

own Insurance fee quotient table.

about 0.05%-0.1% of the total cost of cargo.

We do not suggest putting in car parts in the car. This is because missing goods
occur often. Parts like car stereos are sometimes stolen from cars.
Such incidents occur frequent in countries where peace and order is not maintained
with poor security after the vessel has arrived at the quay.
In some shipping companies of developing countries, there are some cases like
crew members do the stealing while cruising.
Things often stolen: Audio(MD/CD/Cassette/stereo), TV, GPS navigation system, Boost gauge, Turbo timer, Gear stick, Steering wheel, RECARO seat, Intercooler, Emblem on Bonnet(hood)
If you are worried about theft, please add TPND in your insurance.

- TPND (Theft, Pilferage, Non Delivery)
This is insured against incidents like theft, Pilferage, and Non Delivery.

For further details please contact the insurance company.
