Import a Car to Japan with Crypto | Bitmalo

Japan rewards careful preparation. The paperwork is exacting, inspections are thorough, and timing matters—yet the entire journey can feel effortless when the steps are orchestrated correctly. With Bitmalo, you choose the vehicle and pay (crypto or bank); we choreograph inspection, purchase, export, ocean/air transport, customs, and post-arrival milestones through registration.

What “easy” looks like in Japan

Picture this: your car arrives into Yokohama or Kobe in a closed container, passes through customs with a complete document set, and heads to inspection on a booked slot. You get ETA updates, fee reconciliations, and final delivery timing—without calling terminals or guessing line items.

• Typical gateways: Sea via Yokohama, Kobe, Nagoya; air via NRT (Narita), HND (Haneda), KIX (Kansai).
• Settlement: Crypto USDT/BTC/ETH (others on request) or bank transfer (USD).
• Delivery: Nationwide after customs release (Kantō, Kansai, Chūbu, Kyūshū, Hokkaidō).

The Owner’s Playbook (Japan)

1) Choose & verify
Browse Cars and message us. We confirm build spec (VIN/variant), emissions data, and equipment. You’ll see a Japan-ready inspection brief—not just photos.

2) Purchase & export
Once you approve, you pay in crypto or by bank transfer. We buy the car as buyer of record, arrange export clearance, and book your preferred mode (air vs sea).

3) Arrival & customs
We coordinate Japan import entry and arrival charges through our forwarder. You receive a pre-alert with ETA to the chosen port/airport and your delivery window.

4) Inspection & handover
We slot your car into the post-arrival flow (e.g., shaken/registration steps where applicable) and deliver to your address or nominated facility.

What to Know Before You Import

Drive side & lighting
Japan is RHD. LHD vehicles can be imported but often require additional attention for lighting and signaling. We include conformity notes in your report.

Inspection culture
Expect meticulous checks. We plan for headlamp pattern, fog lamp, speedometer units, and emissions evidence. Where translations or test data are needed, we provide them up front to cut repeat visits.

Paperwork fit
Clean chain of title, export docs, bill of sale, and identity match your VIN. We provide translations and certification where required so customs and registration offices get exactly what they expect.

Freight Choices, Simply Explained

• Air: Fast and predictable—ideal for high-value or time-sensitive cars.
• Sea (container/Ro-Ro): Best overall economics; we’ll compare transit times
