We first confirm whether your vehicle can legally be imported under Australian regulations — including personal import schemes, SEVS, performance, classic & rare cars, commercial and fleet vehicles.
No eligibility? We tell you upfront — saving you time and money.
Vehicle Import Approvals (VIA) through ROVER, compliance documentation, customs declarations, biosecurity requirements. This is where many imports fail — our experience prevents costly errors.
Your vehicle is shipped on modern, reliable carriers with secure handling, realistic timelines and full transparency throughout the journey — shared container or RORO.
We manage customs clearance, coordinate inspections, asbestos testing and RAW compliance work to ensure every Australian standard is met. No confusion. No last-minute surprises.
Once approved and compliant, your vehicle is released and delivered — ready for registration in your state or territory.
Australian vehicle importation operates under multiple government pathways. Picking the wrong one is the most common — and most expensive — mistake. Here's how we match your vehicle to the right scheme.
Vehicles 25 years or older (measured by build date, not model year) qualify for import under concessional entry. Perfect for classic Mustangs, R32 Skylines, Land Rover Defenders and pre-2001 collectables.
For modern performance, rare, or unique vehicles meeting one of six eligibility criteria. All SEVS imports must be processed by a Registered Automotive Workshop (RAW).
Australian citizens, PRs and eligible visa holders who've owned their vehicle overseas for 12+ months can import it under the Personal Import option — one vehicle per five years.
Whether you're importing one vehicle or fifty, the process is handled with the same precision.
Importing a personal dream car — one vehicle, handled like it's our own.
Rare collector, classic and performance vehicles — SEVS, 25-year and concessional pathways.
Moving back to Australia under the Personal Import Scheme — with proper documentation & timing.
Commercial vehicles, fleets & bulk movements with consolidated freight and customs clearance.
Many people attempt to import vehicles themselves — and regret it. The most expensive part of importing a car is usually the part you didn't know about.
With Dazmac, you get it done right the first time.
Vehicle importation into Australia is highly regulated. Freight companies ship cars. Dazmac imports them.
Timeframes vary depending on approval type, origin country and compliance requirements. As a guide, VIA processing alone is 3–4 weeks; UK assessments through ROVER can take up to 60 business days; sea freight from Japan averages 20–30 days. We'll provide a realistic, end-to-end estimate during your quote.
No. Australian regulations are strict and not every vehicle qualifies. That's why eligibility assessment is always the first step we handle — against the 25-year rule, SEVS Register, Personal Import Scheme, concessional RAV entry and non-RAV pathways.
No. We provide transparent pricing and explain all potential costs upfront — including freight, marine insurance, customs duty, 10% GST, Luxury Car Tax (if applicable), asbestos testing, compliance work and delivery.
Yes — from approvals to shipping to compliance and delivery. We're a licensed Customs & Quarantine broker with bonded depots in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Fremantle.
Australia has a zero-tolerance asbestos policy. Testing is mandatory and costs roughly $800–$1,000 if done locally. We can coordinate offshore testing before shipment to save you time and money.
Both. Shared container is best for valuable, modified or low-clearance vehicles. RoRo is cost-effective for standard road cars. We'll recommend the right method per vehicle.
