We first confirm whether your US vehicle can legally be imported into Australia — checking the 25-year rule, SEVS Register, Personal Import Scheme and left-hand-drive considerations before you commit.
No eligibility? We tell you upfront — saving you time and money.
Vehicle Import Approvals (VIA) through ROVER, US title & export documentation, customs declarations and biosecurity requirements. This is where many imports fail — our experience prevents costly errors.
We collect from the seller and load at the nearest major US port — Los Angeles, Houston, Savannah or New York/New Jersey — via shared container or RORO, with realistic timelines and full transparency throughout the ~30-day journey.
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.
Importing from the USA operates under multiple Australian government pathways. Picking the wrong one is the most common — and most expensive — mistake. Here's how we match your American car 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, first-gen Broncos, C10 pickups, square-body Chevys and pre-2001 American collectables.
For modern American performance, rare, or unique vehicles meeting one of six eligibility criteria — think Mustang GT, Corvette, Shelby & Hellcat. All SEVS imports must be processed by a Registered Automotive Workshop (RAW).
Australian citizens, PRs and eligible visa holders returning from the US who've owned their vehicle for 12+ months can import it under the Personal Import option — one vehicle per five years.
Whether you're importing one American car or a whole fleet, the process is handled with the same precision.
Importing a personal dream car from the States — one vehicle, handled like it's our own.
Rare collector, classic and performance Americans — SEVS, 25-year and concessional pathways.
Moving home from the US under the Personal Import Scheme — with proper documentation & timing.
Commercial vehicles, dealer stock & bulk movements with consolidated freight and customs clearance.
Many people attempt to import an American car themselves — and regret it. The most expensive part of importing from the USA is usually the part you didn't know about.
With Dazmac, you get it done right the first time.
Importing from the USA into Australia is highly regulated. Freight companies ship cars. Dazmac imports them.
As a guide, sea freight from US ports averages around 30 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 based on your car, the chosen scheme and the departure port.
Yes, in many cases. LHD vehicles 25 years or older can be kept left-hand drive under the 25-year rule, while newer cars are assessed under SEVS or the Personal Import Scheme — some may require conversion to comply. We confirm exactly what applies to your vehicle before you buy.
No. We provide transparent pricing and explain all potential costs upfront — including US port handling, freight, marine insurance, customs duty, 10% GST, Luxury Car Tax (if applicable), asbestos testing, compliance work and delivery.
Yes — from US collection and approvals to shipping, compliance and Australian delivery. We're a licensed Customs & Quarantine broker with bonded depots in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Fremantle.
Australia has a zero-tolerance asbestos policy, and older American 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.
We consolidate and ship from every major US port, including Los Angeles, Houston, Savannah and New York/New Jersey — via shared container for valuable, modified or low-clearance cars, or RORO for standard road vehicles. We recommend the right method and port per vehicle.
