Pre-Shipment Inspection
Vehicle Pre-Shipment Inspections
Many importing countries require mandatory pre-shipment inspections (PSI) before Japanese used vehicles can be shipped. We arrange inspections through all major accredited providers in Japan to guarantee smooth customs clearance and compliance worldwide.
These inspections ensure compliance with roadworthiness, safety, emissions, and biosecurity standards. Different governments recognize different inspection providers, so exporters must use the correct agency depending on the destination country.
At Kansai Group, we coordinate the right inspection for your market — so your vehicle clears customs without delays, penalties, or rejection at the destination port.
