Export Jetour process
Buying a used car from another country works when every step is visible. This is exactly how a used Jetour T2 moves from a seller in China to your port, and what you receive at each step.
How does buying a used Jetour T2 from China work?
In short: you tell us what you need, we send matching units with reports, you choose and pay against a proforma invoice, we clear the car for export and ship it, and you clear it at your port with our documents. In-stock units ship within 10 working days after payment.
- Inquiry. Send year or budget, petrol or i-DM, drive, quantity, destination country and port. WhatsApp is fastest.
- Matching units. Within 24 hours we send units that fit, each with photos, mileage and an FOB or CIF price.
- Unit report. For the units you shortlist we send the full report — exterior and interior photos, cold-start video, warning-light check, VIN photo, and battery test for i-DM units. Ask for a live video call if you want to see the car yourself.
- Proforma invoice. The PI lists each vehicle by VIN, the price, incoterm, payment terms and validity.
- Purchase and export clearance. We buy the unit, deregister it in China, and complete export customs. Third-party inspection can be arranged on request.
- Shipping. Ro-Ro or container from the Chinese port that suits the unit's location and your destination. You get loading photos.
- Documents and arrival. The bill of lading and export documents are sent to you so your customs broker can clear the vehicle.
Which documents come with an exported used car?
Typical documents for a used vehicle exported from China are listed below. Your destination may ask for more — such as a pre-shipment inspection certificate or a certificate of conformity — so tell us the country before we issue the PI and we will confirm what we can provide.
- Commercial invoice and packing list
- Bill of lading (B/L)
- Certificate of origin (CO)
- Vehicle deregistration / export certificate from China
- Vehicle registration and VIN details
FOB or CIF: which should you choose?
Under FOB, our price ends when the car is loaded at the Chinese port; you book and pay the sea freight. Under CIF, we also pay freight and minimum insurance to your destination port. First-time importers often prefer CIF because it is one price to the port. Both rules are defined in the ICC's Incoterms® 2020.
The official definitions are published by the International Chamber of Commerce: ICC Incoterms® rules.
Ro-Ro or container?
Ro-Ro (roll-on/roll-off) ships carry cars driven on board; it suits larger quantities to ports with Ro-Ro service. Containers protect the car and suit small orders or inland destinations; T2s are lashed inside 40-foot high-cube containers, sometimes on two-tier racks. We recommend the option per order.
How long does it take?
| Stage | Typical time |
|---|---|
| Reply with matching units | Within 24 hours |

Import duties, taxes and registration rules are set by your country and change over time. We share what we know, but please confirm them with your customs broker before ordering.
