You name the car. We find it, source it, ship it, and deliver it, registered and road-ready, right to your door. From seven international markets. With 35 years of experience behind every order.
Start Your Import OrderFinding the right vehicle in Pakistan's local market is rarely straightforward. The options are limited, the specifications fall short, and the prices on premium models rarely justify what you are actually getting. That is the problem CARS has been solving since 1990.
Our global vehicle sourcing and import service gives Pakistani buyers direct access to the world's most desirable automotive markets: Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, the UAE, and Thailand. Whether you want a specific model you have seen online, a luxury SUV that is simply unavailable locally, or the exact year, colour, and specification you have been looking for, we source it and bring it to you.
What makes this different from simply browsing an import dealer's existing stock is choice. You are not limited to what happens to be available at the time. You tell us exactly what you want, we locate it in the right market, confirm the full landed cost before anything is committed, and manage the entire process from purchase to your driveway.
Every order runs through a sourcing network built over 35 years of continuous operation. And every vehicle that arrives at Karachi port is cleared by Jumbo International, a Government of Pakistan-approved customs clearing agency, so the most complicated part of the process is handled by people who do it every single day.
Not every country is an equal source for every vehicle. Over three decades, CARS has learned exactly what each market does best, which vehicles to source from where, at what quality, and at what cost. Here is what each source market offers Pakistani buyers.
Japan is Pakistan's most established source market for imported vehicles and for good reason. Japanese auction houses operate on a strict grading system, with every vehicle accompanied by a detailed auction sheet disclosing condition, mileage, interior quality, and any prior damage. This transparency is unmatched anywhere else in the world. Japan is the ideal source for fuel-efficient hybrids, reliable everyday sedans, low-mileage SUVs, and well-maintained luxury models from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Lexus, and beyond. Shipping from Japan to Karachi typically takes four to six weeks.
The UK is one of the finest sources for European luxury and performance vehicles entering Pakistan. Because the UK is a right-hand drive market, vehicles sourced here arrive already compliant with Pakistan's road requirements, no conversion required. The UK is particularly strong for Range Rover, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and Audi models in premium specifications that are either unavailable locally or priced significantly higher through authorised dealers. VAT-qualifying exports from the UK can also represent a meaningful cost advantage when structured correctly.
American vehicles occupy a unique space in Pakistan's market. Full-size SUVs and pickup trucks, GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Suburban, Ford F-Series, Toyota Sequoia, attract buyers who want scale, capability, and presence that simply has no equivalent in Asian or European markets. The USA is also the source of choice for specific American performance models and luxury vehicles at price points that compare favourably once landed costs are calculated. Vehicles sourced from the US require right-hand drive conversion unless specifically imported under relevant regulations.
Canada offers largely the same vehicle range as the United States, with some model variants and trim levels that differ. For buyers seeking specific North American configurations that are hard to locate in the US market, Canada regularly presents alternatives. Landed costs from Canada are comparable to US imports, and the quality standards on Canadian-market vehicles are consistent with American counterparts.
GCC-specification vehicles are engineered for heat, and that engineering translates directly to Pakistan's climate. UAE imports are particularly popular for their availability of current-year models at competitive prices, often with lower mileage and in excellent condition. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are also strong sources for certain Middle Eastern exclusive models and specifications not available in Asian or European markets. Shipping times from the UAE to Karachi are the shortest of any source market, typically one to two weeks.
Thailand has emerged as a valuable source for specific regional models, particularly certain Toyota and Honda variants that are built and sold exclusively for Southeast Asian markets. These vehicles often offer a combination of reliability, specification quality, and price that sits between Japanese and European imports. For buyers seeking something slightly different from the standard Japanese auction pool, Thailand increasingly presents strong options.
Most buyers come to us having already decided they want an imported vehicle. The question is not whether to import, it is who to trust with the process. Here is exactly what happens when you place an order through CARS Pakistan.
Share the make, model, year, colour, and any specific features you need, right-hand drive, hybrid, specific trim level, and mileage limit. There is no commitment at this stage. We use your brief to assess sourcing options across our international networks and come back to you with availability and a full cost breakdown.
Before anything is agreed, you receive a complete cost breakdown covering the vehicle purchase price in the source market, international shipping, marine insurance, Pakistan customs duties and taxes, Jumbo International clearance fees, and delivery to your door. What is quoted is what is charged. No hidden additions after the vehicle arrives at port.
Once you are satisfied with the vehicle and the cost, we proceed with the purchase. For auction-sourced vehicles from Japan, this involves bidding on your behalf at certified auction houses. For other markets, we work through our established dealer networks. Nothing moves until you have approved both the vehicle and the price.
The vehicle is shipped to Karachi port using a secure container or RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping, depending on the vehicle type and source market. You are kept informed throughout the shipping process with timeline updates and documentation.
On arrival at Karachi port, your vehicle is cleared by Jumbo International, a Government of Pakistan-approved customs clearing agency with an established track record at port. This covers Goods Declaration filing, duty and tax payment, port handling, and all documentation. Port clearance is where most import complications arise for buyers who go through unreliable channels. Using Jumbo International removes that risk entirely.
Once cleared, your vehicle proceeds through registration and ownership documentation, handled by our team. If you have opted for insurance through our insurance solutions service, coverage is arranged before delivery. Your vehicle arrives at your Karachi address or anywhere in Pakistan, registered, insured, and ready to drive.
“Every step is documented, every cost agreed in advance, and every vehicle that comes through this process has 35 years of accumulated experience behind it.”
Global vehicle sourcing is not for everyone. It is specifically the right choice for buyers in one or more of the following situations.
You have identified the exact vehicle you want; make, model, year, and often down to the colour and trim, and it is either unavailable in Pakistan or available only at a significant premium. You are not browsing. You are ready to move on to the right vehicle at the right cost.
You are driving a locally assembled vehicle and have reached the point where the quality, features, or driving experience no longer match where you are. An imported vehicle represents a meaningful step up, and you want to get it right the first time.
You are based in the UK, USA, Canada, or the UAE and want to send a vehicle home to family in Pakistan. You cannot be present for the process and need someone on the ground in Karachi who can be trusted to manage everything: sourcing, clearance, registration, without requiring you to return.
Your company requires executive or fleet vehicles that reflect an appropriate standard for your leadership team. Locally assembled options do not meet that standard. You need financing options, documentation, and a process that works cleanly within a corporate procurement structure.
This is your first imported vehicle, and the process feels overwhelming. You are concerned about being misled, receiving a vehicle that does not match what was described, or facing unexpected costs at port. You want a partner with a track record long enough to stand behind their word.
Yes, you can share the make, model, year, colour, trim, mileage limit, and specific features you want. CARS Pakistan will check availability across its sourcing markets and confirm whether the vehicle can be imported under current Pakistani import regulations before proceeding.
CARS Pakistan sources vehicles from Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, the UAE / Dubai, and Thailand. Each market is suitable for different types of vehicles, such as Japanese hybrids, UK right-hand-drive European luxury vehicles, American full-size SUVs, GCC-spec vehicles from the UAE, and selected regional models from Thailand.
Yes. Before anything is committed, CARS Pakistan provides a complete landed cost breakdown including vehicle purchase price, shipping, marine insurance, customs duties and taxes, Jumbo International clearance fees, registration, and delivery. The purpose is to make sure the cost is agreed before the vehicle arrives.
Timelines depend on the source country and shipping route. Vehicles from Japan typically take around four to six weeks to reach Karachi, while vehicles from the UAE usually have the shortest shipping time, often around one to two weeks. Final delivery also depends on customs clearance, registration, and documentation.
Every vehicle imported through CARS Pakistan is cleared through Jumbo International, a Government of Pakistan-approved customs clearing agency. This includes Goods Declaration filing, duty and tax payment, port handling, documentation, and vehicle release from Karachi port.
Yes. This service is suitable for overseas Pakistanis and NRPs who want to send a vehicle home to family in Pakistan. CARS Pakistan can manage sourcing, shipping, customs clearance, registration, and delivery while keeping you updated throughout the process.
