How the JDM import process works

Importing a vehicle from Japan doesn’t need to be complicated.

1. Search

We find clean JDM cars daily through Japan’s largest auction network.

 

2. Inspect

Our team inspects the vehicle in person — photos, videos, auction sheet review.

 

3. Ship

We handle export, shipping, customs, and all paperwork end-to-end.

4. Deliver

Your JDM arrives in Canada fully cleared, and we guide you through Québec registration requirements based on eligibility.

Are JDM Cars Legal in Montreal?

Yes – JDM vehicles are legal to import into Canada, but Québec has stricter registration requirements than most provinces.

In Québec, vehicles must generally be 25 years or older from the month of manufacture to be eligible for registration. Federal import eligibility alone is not sufficient for Québec registration.

We verify eligibility before purchase and help Montréal buyers understand whether a specific vehicle can be legally registered in Québec.

Age Restriction​

25 years or older for registration in Quebec

Frequently Asked Questions — JDM Imports in Montreal

These are a few of our most commonly asked questions.

Yes — Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) vehicles are legal to import into Canada, but Québec has stricter registration requirements than most provinces.

At the federal level, a vehicle must be legally eligible to enter Canada under Transport Canada import rules. For Québec registration, vehicles must generally be 25 years or older from the month of manufacture to be eligible for registration and road use.

This means a vehicle can be federally importable into Canada, but not registrable in Québec unless it meets Québec’s age and compliance requirements.

We confirm eligibility before purchase to ensure there are no surprises.

Québec applies more restrictive registration and compliance rules than most other Canadian provinces.

While many provinces allow registration of vehicles 15 years or older, Québec generally requires vehicles to be 25 years or older for registration. This is due to Québec’s provincial safety, emissions, and regulatory framework, which differs from the rest of Canada.

Because of this, vehicle eligibility in Québec must be evaluated separately from federal import eligibility.

This is why confirming Québec-specific requirements before purchase is critical.

In most cases, importing a JDM vehicle from Japan takes approximately 6–10 weeks from purchase to arrival in Canada.

Timelines can vary based on:

  • Vehicle availability

  • Shipping schedules

  • Port processing times

We provide clear timelines and regular updates throughout the process so buyers know exactly what to expect.

Insurance availability for right-hand-drive (RHD) vehicles in Québec varies by provider, vehicle type, and intended use.

While RHD vehicles are legal to import into Canada, insurance approval in Québec is not automatic and depends on the insurer’s underwriting criteria.

We help buyers understand what to expect before purchasing, including common insurance considerations based on vehicle age and use case.

No. We operate on an import-to-order model and do not carry local inventory in Québec.

This allows buyers to:

  • Access a wider selection directly from Japan

  • Choose vehicles based on condition and mileage

  • Avoid paying premiums for limited local availability

Every vehicle is sourced specifically for the buyer.

Yes — this is one of the most important parts of what we do.

Before any vehicle is purchased, we:

  • Confirm federal import eligibility

  • Review Québec registration requirements

  • Verify age, documentation, and compliance factors

This ensures buyers do not purchase a vehicle that cannot be registered in Québec.

It’s how we prevent costly mistakes and ensure a smooth import experience.
