We work with dealers and partners across Europe who source vehicles from South Korea for resale in their local markets.

Question 2

Which countries do you export to?

Accepted Answer

We deliver vehicles to more than 40 European countries. Contact us with your destination country, and we will provide estimated delivery times and costs.

Question 3

How are payments made?

Accepted Answer

Payments are made via international SWIFT bank transfer.

Question 4

How long does delivery to Europe take?

Accepted Answer

Delivery typically takes 6–9 weeks, depending on the destination country and port (RoRo shipping). Exact transit times are confirmed when the order is placed.

Question 5

How can I be sure the vehicle price is genuine?

Accepted Answer

We provide either an auction receipt or an invoice from the sales platform, depending on the source of the vehicle. All prices are fully documented and transparent.

Question 6

How do you inspect vehicles before shipping?

Accepted Answer

We perform a visual inspection, paint thickness measurement, fluid checks, and computer diagnostics. The entire inspection process is recorded on video, allowing you to review the vehicle before making payment.

Question 7

Which documents are provided with the vehicle?

Accepted Answer

We provide the Bill of Lading, Korean Export Certificate, and commercial invoice. Additional documentation depends on the import requirements of your country.

Question 8

How long does it take from payment to shipment?

Accepted Answer

Customers have five business days to settle the invoice. Vehicle preparation at the storage yard takes approximately three business days, after which the car is loaded onto the next available vessel.

Do you offer discounts for bulk orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer tailored conditions for high-volume purchases. Contact us, and we will prepare a proposal based on your expected volume.

Question 10

Question 11

What support do you provide to partners?

Accepted Answer

We provide training on the Korean automotive market, as well as branded photos, videos, and content from South Korea for your website and social media. All of this is included in the partnership at no additional cost.

Question 12

Do you provide any guarantees?

Accepted Answer

We guarantee that the vehicle matches its description and inspection results, and we assume financial responsibility in accordance with our terms of cooperation.

Question 13

What is included in the final vehicle cost?

Accepted Answer

The total price consists of four components: the vehicle purchase price in South Korea, inland logistics to the port, ocean freight, and customs clearance in your country. There are no hidden fees — you receive a complete cost breakdown before payment.

Question 14

Can I check the vehicle history before purchasing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every vehicle comes with a CarHistory report — an official Korean database containing records from the date of first registration. It includes mileage history, insurance claims, and the number of previous owners. Odometer tampering is a criminal offence in South Korea.

Question 15

Why are Korean vehicles often more cost-effective than similar vehicles in Europe?

Accepted Answer

There are three main reasons. First, Korean drivers replace their vehicles frequently, resulting in a large supply and competitive prices. Second, the absence of harsh road salt helps preserve the body and suspension. Third, vehicles intended for the domestic Korean market are often equipped with features not available in European specifications.

Question 16

Which brands are available on the Korean market?

Accepted Answer

Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis are especially attractive, offering premium specifications at prices lower than those typically found in Europe. BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Volkswagen are also widely available in excellent condition.

Question 17

How are vehicles shipped from South Korea to Europe?

Accepted Answer

Vehicles are transported by sea, either via RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) vessels or in containers.

With RoRo shipping, vehicles are driven onto enclosed decks, protecting them from salt and weather exposure during transit.

Container shipping involves securing the vehicle inside a container. The most suitable option depends on the destination country and shipping route.

Question 18

Where do you source vehicles in South Korea?

Accepted Answer

We work with leading Korean auctions and platforms, including Encar, K Car, and KB Cha Cha Cha. Each vehicle comes with a detailed report containing its history, photographs, and technical specifications. In addition, our specialists perform a physical inspection before purchase.
