The first thing you will want to do is find an exporter of used Japanese tractors. You can find lists of these online by performing a simple internet search. After you find an exporter, you will then want to find the tractor you want. Once you have found the tractor you want, contact the exporter and make an offer to purchase the tractor from Japan. Once you have done that, the exporter will send you a Pro-Forma Invoice. This is your agreement to purchase the tractor. Sign it and send it back. Then, send your payment to the exporter by an electronic transfer from your bank. This would be the quickest and easiest way to get the payment part of this completed. Once you have done that, the exporter will book the tractor onto a ship from Japan and will clear the tractor for shipment. This process is often referred to as FOB. Once the ship has left port and the tractor is on its way to you, the exporter will then send you the shipping documents as well as the tractor documents via first class mail. Once you have received those documents, you should pay any remaining balance owed to the exporter. You will then want to get in contact with a shipping agent who will be handling the receiving of your tractor and passing it through customs. Once the tractor arrives, you will pay the shipping fee. You will also pay the 10% import duty, 17.5% VAT, the customs duty, and the shipping agent for their services. The tractor will then be released from customs and available for collection.
As you can see, it is quite the process to import a used Japanese tractor. However, it will be worth it to have the tractor you have been wanting. It may be time consuming and a bit pricey. It will have its benefits and will pay off in the end.
