Guide to importing dismantled used car parts and engines from Japan to Russia

In the ever-evolving automotive industry, Russia has seen a significant influx of vehicles from Japan over the past three decades. With this surge, the demand for genuine, high-quality used parts and engines for these vehicles has grown exponentially. For businesses and individuals looking to import these essential components, understanding the process, the best practices, and the unique advantages offered by certain suppliers is crucial. This guide will navigate you through importing dismantled used car parts and engines from Japan to Russia, ensuring you make the most informed decisions for your automotive needs.

Understanding the Import Process

1. Choosing the right ports for import: Russia offers several ports for importing goods, but when it comes to importing used car parts and engines from Japan, Vladivostok, St. Petersburg, Khabarovsk, and Belarus stand out as the primary entry points. Vladivostok, due to its geographical proximity to Japan, offers the shortest shipping duration—just 3 to 5 days after sailing from Japan. For imports to other destinations, it’s advisable to contact us for specific shipping details.
2. Optimizing container space: To maximize efficiency and cost-effectiveness, dismantling the car fully and filling the container with parts is the best strategy. Alternatively, sending a mixed container of nose cuts, half cuts, and fully dismantled vehicle parts and engines can also be beneficial. Preparing a container typically takes about a month, so planning ahead is key.
3. Visit and verify: Choosing us, as your provider, offers the opportunity to visit our operations in Japan, providing significant peace of mind. We go the extra mile by providing free accommodation, allowing clients to witness the buying, dismantling, and loading processes first-hand. This transparency ensures that you’re investing in quality parts and engines.
4. Tailored solutions for Russian markets: Russian demand predominantly leans towards newer model used car parts and engines. We can cater to all makes and models, irrespective of the quantity, becoming an invaluable partner for businesses. Moreover, we are willing to work on a long-term basis and can offer dedicated loading pits for your containers, streamlining the process even further.
5. Communication and support: Effective communication is the backbone of any successful import business. Opt for us, as we can communicate in English or Russian, offering multiple channels of contact such as email, website inquiries, or direct calls via WhatsApp at +81 90 6070 8999.
6. Leverage auctions and networks: Japan’s auto auctions are a goldmine for finding quality vehicles for dismantling. With access to over 100 auto auctions and a network that includes car dealers, trade-in houses, and brokers, we can guarantee the best picks each year where more than 6 million vehicles are available for sale each year. We can also supply left hand drive Mercedes Benz as a whole vehicle, half-cut of completely dismantled. This extensive access ensures that you can find vehicles with no rust, reasonable mileage, and perfect engine conditions—factors crucial for the Russian market.
