FAQ
Answers to Common Questions
Have questions about buying and exporting a vehicle from South Africa? Our FAQs cover the most common questions about vehicle verification, inspections, VAT savings, export documentation and transportation, helping you understand the process and make informed decisions with confidence.
No. Cape2Coast Auto does not carry vehicle stock. Customers find vehicles through South African listing platforms, dealerships or private sellers and send the details to us for verification.
We can advise you on suitable listing platforms and review vehicles you identify. Our core service is independently verifying the selected vehicle and supporting its purchase and export.
We verify the vehicle's identifying information and conduct the relevant available theft-status and legitimacy checks. The precise checks depend on the vehicle, seller and available records.
Depending on the vehicle's location and selected service, we arrange an on-site assessment and provide current photographs, videos and condition findings. Independent mechanical inspections can be arranged where necessary.
A visual condition assessment is not the same as a comprehensive mechanical inspection. Where mechanical certainty is important, we recommend and can arrange an independent inspection by a qualified provider.
Only the exporter is eligible to claim the VAT refund. Cape2Coast Auto gives you an agreed portion of the VAT benefit upfront as a reduction in your quotation and retains a percentage for our export service and administration.
Yes. Once the vehicle has been approved and purchased, we can coordinate export documentation and transport to the agreed border, port or destination.
