01Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using apexjapanco.com (the "Website"), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our Website or services.

02Services

Apex Trading 株式会社 provides vehicle sourcing, export, and shipping services from Japan to international clients. We facilitate the purchase, inspection, shipping, and delivery of vehicles, parts, tires, engines, and heavy machinery.

Our services include auction sourcing, inland transport in Japan, export documentation, and ocean freight arrangement to your destination port.

03Vehicle Condition & Inspections

All vehicles are inspected prior to export. We provide JCI (Japan Auto Auction inspection) reports where available, along with auction sheet translations.

However, vehicles are sold as-is and as-inspected. Apex Trading 株式会社 is not liable for conditions not visible or detectable at the time of inspection, including latent defects that develop after delivery.

04Pricing and Payment

Prices for vehicles and services are quoted in Japanese Yen (JPY) or United States Dollars (USD) and are subject to change based on market conditions, auction prices, and exchange rates. Quoted prices remain valid for the period stated on the quotation.

Payment terms: a 50% deposit is required to begin sourcing a vehicle, with full payment required before shipping. The accepted payment method is bank transfer (TT / telegraphic transfer).

All funds must clear in our account before shipment is arranged. No vehicle will be released or shipped until full payment is received and confirmed.

05Shipping and Delivery

Shipping is arranged via RO/RO (Roll-on/Roll-off) or container method, depending on the vehicle and destination. Estimated delivery times vary by destination port, typically ranging from 3 to 8 weeks from the date of shipping.

Apex Trading 株式会社 is not liable for delays caused by shipping lines, customs authorities, port congestion, weather, or force majeure events beyond our control.

06Customs and Import Duties

Buyers are responsible for all import duties, taxes, customs clearance fees, and regulatory compliance in their destination country.

Apex Trading 株式会社 provides all necessary export documentation from Japan, including the export certificate, commercial invoice, and packing list. We do not handle import-side customs clearance, which is the buyer’s responsibility.

07Cancellation and Refunds

Orders may be cancelled before the vehicle is purchased or sourced on behalf of the buyer. Once a vehicle has been purchased on your behalf, deposits are non-refundable, as the vehicle has been committed and paid for.

If Apex Trading 株式会社 fails to deliver a vehicle due to our own fault or negligence, a full refund of the amounts paid will be issued to the buyer.

08Warranties

Vehicles are exported as used goods. No warranty is expressed or implied unless specifically stated in writing by Apex Trading 株式会社
