As soon as your vehicle has been prepared by UVS for export, and all documentation is in
place, we will email you and your nominated agent copies of all relevant paperwork.
Thereafter, the vehicle will be loaded on a carrier and enter through the Komatipoort border post.
It is important to have all relevant documentation, permits, and duty/taxes payments processed prior to the arrival in order to avoid any unnecessary issues and complications. All original vehicle documents are either couriered to you prior to dispatch, or handed to you or your clearing agent by the car carrier driver.
