IMPORT INSPECTIONS ยท CERTIFICATION
Import inspections and certification in Christchurch
Getting a vehicle brought in from overseas through inspection and certification, without the stress.

What it involves
A vehicle that has been imported from overseas needs to be inspected and certified before it can be put on the road here. An import inspection is a thorough check of the vehicle, and certification is the work that helps get it through that process.
We are a Christchurch workshop that does this work regularly, and import inspections and certification are as much a part of what we do as WOFs and repairs. We keep our explanations general and honest rather than promising outcomes, because every vehicle is different.
Customers who have been through import compliance with us describe it in their Google reviews. One said we turned what could have been a complex process into something smooth and well-organised from start to finish. Another said we helped get their car through its emissions test and made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
Why it matters
Importing a vehicle can feel like a lot of steps. Having a workshop that understands the process, answers questions clearly and keeps things organised takes a lot of the worry out of it.
Doing the inspection properly also gives you a clear picture of the vehicle you have brought in.
