Inspection/Compliance Services
AutoTerminal Japan
1.Vehicle Appraisal
AutoTerminal Japan’s (ATJ) inspection center is fully equipped with state of the art equipment to allow us to correctly appraise and inspect vehicles. The inspection staff has direct links to the data entry clerks so when the cars are inspected, initial vehicle information can be checked and corrected if needed.
2. Accident Damage Appraisal
Most vehicles exported from Japan are purchased from auctions or lease companies and appraised to some degree of efficiency to determine if the vehicle has had previous accident history.
AutoTerminal Japan (ATJ) makes sure that vehicles undergo an independent appraisal and inspection to ensure that they are free of defects or accident damage.
We make sure that our customers are worry-free by providing them with all the relevant, accurate, and detailed information about the condition of their purchased vehicles.
3. Odometer Inspection
The absence of distinguishable or noticeable physical marks such as dents, scratches, and scrapes does not mean that a vehicle is in excellent condition. It is possible that its odometer has been tampered with to display fraudulent mileage. This is usually done to mask high mileage on late-model used cars, a serious threat to used car buyers that can cost thousands of dollars in losses and lead to frustrating breakdowns and repairs.
Our alliance with Odometer Inspection Services (OIS) ensures that vehicles undergo stringent odometer inspections to determine any manipulation or tampering and prevent odometer fraud. We have competent and highly trained inspectors and professional technicians who use only the best state of the art equipment to inspect, identify and authenticate a vehicle’s odometer.
4. Vehicle History Reports (AIRA Database Cross check)
A used vehicle's history is a very important factor, even more valuable than its present visual specifications and condition. When purchasing a used vehicle, it is important to consider its year of manufacture, year of registration and stolen vehicle records.
ATJ's direct access to the Automobile Institute Registration Association (AIRA) allows us to provide customers relevant vehicle information upon request. We cross check AIRA’s database for specific information including de-registration, mileage report, and more importantly, a list of the vehicle's previous owners. We can provide the original Japanese history report as well as an English translation certificate.
At AutoTerminal, we pride ourselves in providing you with the most accurate vehicle history reports available.
5. MAF Inspection
The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) is a government agency in New Zealand that protects the country’s borders from foreign contaminants that could potentially damage main industries. MAF certified inspectors must therefore inspect and clean vehicles before they can enter NZ.
MAF has fully qualified and approved AutoTerminal Japan as a pre-cleaning and inspection center. ATJ conducts MAF pre-cleaning on used vehicles entering the NZ market.

SVA Compliance
The Single Vehicle Approval (SVA) scheme is a pre-registration inspection for cars and light vehicles that have not yet been approved for British or European standards. The main purpose of the scheme is to ensure that these vehicles have been designed and constructed to modern safety and environmental standards before they can be used on public roads.
AutoTerminal.com United Kingdom (ATUK) is one of the leading SVA sites in the UK. Aside from selling quality used vehicles from Japan that we comply ourselves, we also service cars purchased from other importers. Customers enjoy the most competitive SVA rates and are assured of the quality of our work through our first-class compliance facilities.
AutoTerminal United Kingdom also does SVA compliance on super cars such as Koenigsegg, Porsche, and Lamborghini.
AutoTerminal.com Australia
RAWS Compliance
The Registered Automotive Workshop Scheme (RAWS) operates to allow the importation and compliance of used vehicles that are less than 15 years old. Before a vehicle can be imported to Australia under this scheme, it must be listed in the Specialist & Enthusiast Vehicle Scheme (SEVS) register. The vehicle must also be on the list of vehicles to be complied by a Registered Automotive Workshop (RAW).
Once in Australia, a RAW will then comply the vehicle to meet Australian standards and fit it with a Used Import Plate. After other local requirements are completed, the vehicle is then ready for registration.
Customers are guaranteed that all vehicles sold in AutoTerminal.com Australia (ATOZ) are RAWS certified and complied. ATOZ is a member of the RAWS Association Limited.
