Cusmode Customs Brokers assists with customs and border clearance for vehicles and machinery imported into New Zealand. We support private importers, motor vehicle traders and businesses with Customs entry preparation, duty and GST requirements and MPI biosecurity processes where applicable.
Vehicle imports can involve several separate requirements, including New Zealand Customs, MPI biosecurity, shipping and port processes, and vehicle compliance before registration. Cusmode focuses on the border-clearance side and helps coordinate the documents and communications needed to move the vehicle through Customs and MPI.
Send us the purchase invoice, shipping documents and vehicle details before arrival where possible. Early review can help identify missing documents or biosecurity issues before the vehicle reaches New Zealand.
We can assist with
- Cars
- Motorcycles
- Boats
- Trailers
- Machinery
- Used vehicles
- Commercial vehicles
- Customs value and GST guidance
- MPI inspection and cleaning requirements
Used vehicles, machinery and equipment can present biosecurity risk if contaminated with soil, plant material, insects or other organic matter. MPI requirements vary by vehicle or machinery type, origin and condition, and inspection or treatment may be required. Cleaning before shipment and providing complete documentation can help avoid unnecessary delays.
