Importify Cars
Southern Africa · via Port of Durban

JDM Importer for South Africa

For ITAC permit-holders we ship RoRo from Auckland into Durban — returning residents and collectors bringing eligible vehicles home. Confirm your permit category first; we'll handle everything on the New Zealand side.

Importify Cars is a New Zealand vehicle exporter — we source, verify and ship Japanese performance cars from the deepest JDM pool outside Japan to buyers across South Africa. New Zealand imported Japan's best for thirty years: Skyline GT-Rs, Supras, RX-7s, Evos and Type Rs with English-language ownership history, NZTA odometer records, and the option of a physical inspection before you commit — none of which a Japanese auction grade sheet gives you.

Importing to South Africa: what to know

  • South Africa tightly restricts used-vehicle imports — an ITAC import permit is generally limited to returning residents, immigrants and qualifying vintage or collector vehicles. Confirm your permit position first.
  • For permit-holders we handle the NZ side end to end — sourcing, verification, export paperwork and the RoRo booking to Durban.
