FAQ

Common
Questions.

What documents are needed to export a vehicle from South Africa? +
To legally export a vehicle from South Africa you typically need: a valid ITAC (International Trade Administration Commission) export permit, a SARPCO police clearance certificate confirming the vehicle is not stolen, the original title deed/registration papers, a commercial invoice, and customs documentation. For SA-manufactured vehicles, a SADAC certificate is also required. TVECO handles all of this on your behalf.
Most exports are completed within two to three weeks, depending on destination and how quickly documentation is finalised. Typically, documentation and clearance takes 1–2 weeks. Sea freight to East/West Africa takes 2–4 weeks, while longer routes (e.g. Europe, Middle East) can take 4–8 weeks. We provide a personalised timeline estimate with every quote.
Both options are available. You can bring your own vehicle for export, or TVECO can source one for you from South Africa's market — both new from dealerships and quality pre-owned vehicles. Our sourcing service includes full vehicle verification, VIN checks, and condition assessment.
TVECO exports to 50+ countries worldwide. Our primary markets are across sub-Saharan Africa (Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, DRC, Tanzania, Kenya, etc.), but we also facilitate exports to the Middle East, Europe, and beyond. Contact us with your specific destination for a detailed timeline and quote.
Marine/cargo insurance is available and strongly recommended for all shipments. TVECO can arrange comprehensive marine insurance covering your vehicle from point of collection in South Africa to the destination port. We advise on the most appropriate cover for your shipment.
