Estimate the Total Cost of Importing Your Car from Japan
At Sakura Auto Imports, transparency isn’t just a promise — it’s how we operate.
Our cost calculator provides a clear, instant estimate of the full landed cost to New Zealand, including auction fees, shipping, customs, and compliance. Every figure is based on real data, giving you a reliable and realistic overview from the very beginning.
There are no hidden fees — ever.
All expenses are charged on a true cost basis, supported by official documentation, so you only pay for what is actually incurred.
We charge a single, fixed service fee of $1,750 per vehicle, regardless of the vehicle’s value.
No commissions, no percentage-based markups — just one transparent fee covering our full import service from start to finish.
Simple, transparent, and fair — just the way it should be.
