WHY DAZMAC

Why Australians Trust Dazmac
to Import Cars From Singapore

Singapore is one of the best-kept secrets in car importing. Its Certificate of Entitlement (COE) system means many premium cars are deregistered around the 10-year mark — immaculately maintained, low-mileage and right-hand drive. But importing into Australia is still regulated: the 25-year rule, SEVS eligibility and asbestos rules all apply, and one mistake can cost you. Dazmac handles the entire process end-to-end, so your Singapore import lands clean and ready to register.

Import Eligibility Assessment

We first confirm whether your Singapore vehicle can legally be imported into Australia — checking the 25-year rule, SEVS Register and Personal Import Scheme before you commit. We verify the original build date that determines eligibility.

No eligibility? We tell you upfront — saving you time and money.

2

Government Approvals & Documentation

Vehicle Import Approvals (VIA) through ROVER, Singapore deregistration & export paperwork, customs declarations and biosecurity requirements. This is where many imports fail — our experience prevents costly errors.

3

Singapore Shipping & Logistics

We collect the vehicle and load it direct from the Port of Singapore — one of the world's busiest, best-connected ports — via shared container or RORO, with realistic timelines and full transparency throughout the ~16-day journey.

4

Australian Customs & Compliance

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.

5

Final Delivery To Your Door

Once approved and compliant, your vehicle is released and delivered — ready for registration in your state or territory.

IMPORT PATHWAYS

The Right Scheme,
For Your Singapore Car

Importing from Singapore operates under multiple Australian government pathways. Picking the wrong one is the most common — and most expensive — mistake. Here's how we match your car to the right scheme.

SECTION 36 · RVSR 2019

The 25-Year Rule

Vehicles 25 years or older (measured by build date, not model year) qualify for import under concessional entry — ideal for the older classics and collectables that Singapore enthusiasts have preserved in superb, climate-controlled condition.

  • VIA processing typically 3–4 weeks
  • Passenger cars (MA), light goods (NA), motorcycles, tricycles
  • No RAWS modification required for non-road or pre-reg use

Specialist & Enthusiast Vehicle Scheme

For modern performance, rare, or unique vehicles meeting one of six eligibility criteria — think Porsche, AMG, M-cars and prestige exotics, many available in Singapore in exceptional condition. All SEVS imports must be processed by a Registered Automotive Workshop (RAW).

  • Performance: >110 kW/tonne (pre-2020) or >130 kW/tonne (2020+)
  • Rarity: fewer than 3,000 units/year per make
  • Environmental, mobility, RHD-original & campervan criteria

PERSONAL IMPORT SCHEME

For Expats & Returning Residents

Singapore is home to a large Australian expat community. Australian citizens, PRs and eligible visa holders relocating home who've owned their vehicle for 12+ months can import it under the Personal Import option — one vehicle per five years.

  • 10% GST applies; duty & LCT may apply by value
  • Continuous 12-month ownership & use overseas required
  • Concessions available on compliance requirements

Avoid Costly
Import Mistakes

A great Singapore car is only a bargain if it can actually be imported. The most expensive part of importing from Singapore is usually the part you didn't check first.

  • Assuming a 10-year COE car is automatically eligible
  • Cars that miss the 25-year cut-off by months
  • Unexpected compliance & asbestos costs
  • Incorrect or missing deregistration & export paperwork
  • Vehicles stuck in customs limbo

With Dazmac, you get it done right the first time.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Why import a car from Singapore?

Singapore's Certificate of Entitlement (COE) system makes owning a car expensive long-term, so many premium vehicles are deregistered and sold for export around the 10-year mark — typically with low mileage, full service history and immaculate condition thanks to strict local standards. They're also right-hand drive, making them a natural fit for Australian roads.

How long does it take to import a car from Singapore to Australia?

As a guide, sea freight from the Port of Singapore averages around 16 days, and VIA processing typically takes 3–4 weeks (these can overlap). Add compliance and delivery time on arrival. We'll provide a realistic, end-to-end estimate during your quote.

Is my Singapore car eligible to import into Australia?

It depends on the vehicle. Cars 25 years or older qualify under the 25-year rule; newer performance, rare or prestige models may qualify via the SEVS Register; and if you're relocating, the Personal Import Scheme may apply. A 10-year COE car is not automatically eligible — we confirm exactly which pathway fits your car before you commit.

Do I need to convert the steering to right-hand drive?

No. Singapore drives on the left and its cars are right-hand drive — the same as Australia — so there's no steering conversion required.

Are there hidden costs?

No. We provide transparent pricing and explain all potential costs upfront — including Singapore port handling, freight, marine insurance, customs duty, 10% GST, Luxury Car Tax (if applicable), asbestos testing, compliance work and delivery.

What about asbestos testing?

Australia has a zero-tolerance asbestos policy, and some vehicles can carry asbestos in brakes, gaskets and clutches. 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.
