Questions
Car import FAQ
Not answered here? Call or WhatsApp us.
What does the US$150 fee cover?
Our brokerage service: finding and checking vehicles, bidding for you, and coordinating the purchase and shipping. The car price, auction fees, transport, shipping, insurance, duties, clearing and registration are separate — we estimate them for you before you commit.
Which countries can you import from?
Mainly the USA and Canada through Copart and IAAI auctions, and Japan through our sourcing partners.
How long does importing take?
Usually about two to three months from the winning bid to driving in Ghana. See the stage-by-stage timeline. We give you an estimated arrival date for each car and keep you updated until it reaches Tema.
Can any car be imported into Ghana?
No. Ghana restricts some vehicles by age and condition: for example flood-, fire- and chassis-damaged cars, and right-hand-drive vehicles. The rules changed in 2026 and parts are still being finalised; see Ghana's import rules. We check every car against the rules in force before you bid, so you don't buy a car you can't register.
How much will duty be?
Duty, levies and VAT together are commonly a third to a half of the car's landed value (CIF), more for older cars. Customs sets the value it charges on. Try our cost calculator for a planning figure, and we'll give you a written estimate for your car.
Who pays duty and clearing?
You do, based on Ghana Revenue Authority customs valuation. We estimate the amount in advance and connect you with trusted clearing agents.
Are auction cars sold with a warranty?
No. Auction and in-transit vehicles are sold as-is, in their auction condition. Please read our AS-IS policy before buying.
