Vehicle Import and Motor Trade in Tauranga
Tauranga's port is a major entry point for imported vehicles, including Japanese used vehicles. Vehicle importers based in Tauranga or using Tauranga Port should ensure their motor trade insurance covers the specific risks of the import process — including transit cover from the port, pre-delivery inspection and compliance costs, and stock insurance for vehicles held on-site while awaiting compliance certification. Some vehicle importer-specific risks, such as title defects on imported vehicles, may need specialist cover.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does motor trade insurance cover vehicles imported through Tauranga Port?
Road risk and stock cover can be structured to cover imported vehicles from the point of taking custody at the port. Transit insurance for vehicles while in shipping is a separate product (marine cargo), and your broker can advise on how to bridge the gap between marine transit and your motor trade stock cover.
