    Thanks so much for sharing this information, so many people are unwilling to explain the process of buying a car in Japan

    I have had the pleasure of working online with Yoshiro 3 separate times! Great guy. His knowledge of both languages and cultures make him super valuable to a bidder.
    Also he’s really nice and super responsive to communications!
    I highly recommend Yoshi and JCD!
    Cheers!!

      I'm completely new at buying export cars thanks for this info I saved his website also .
      What do we need to do once the car arrives at our port? I heard something about a broker? What is a broker what does he do and how or where do we find one if we need it? Also you mentioned in the video that this export company does all the paperwork needed to export a car. But again what is needed on my part once the car has arrived at my port ?

    Hello
    I want to know the estimate price of transportation expenses of five Corolla cars from Japan to Dubai? I live in California and a brother of mine works as a mechanic in Dubai. So I want to buy used cars from Japan and send them to Dubai. Thanks
