Thailand's Top Car Exporter to Argentina, the Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean

Jim Autos Thailand is Thailand's oldest and largest auto exporter to the world. In the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago is our largest market but Argentina also represent an important market. Caribbean has been our playground for a very long time especially the Right Hand Drive countries and we have been exporting Right Hand Drive 4x4 pickups and SUVs to all the countries of the RHD Americas including Trinidad and Tobago, Bahamas, Bermuda, Antigua Barbuda, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Lucia, Guyana, Suriname, and Falkland Islands. We are also Thailand's top exporter of Left Hand Drive 4x4 pickups and SUVs to Left Hand Drive countries of Central and South America.

Thailand's top car exporter and 4x4 exporter to the RHD Caribbean countries and LHD countries of Latin America

Jim Autos Thailand is Thailand's and Dubai's top car exporter, Thailand's top auto exporter and Thailand's top 4x4 exporter of Right Hand Drive and Left Hand Drive vehicles to the Americas. We established our dominance in export of Right Hand Drive vehicles and have been Asia's top auto exporter to Right Hand Drive American countries including Trinidad and Tobago, Bahamas, Bermuda, Antigua Barbuda, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Lucia, Guyana, Suriname, and Falkland Islands.

We are proud to be Thailand's top car exporter to Trinidad and Tobago. We are also Thailand's and Dubai's top LHD exporter to Left Hand countries like Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay and Venezuela.

Argentina only allows import of new vehicles

Only new vehicles, equipped with emission control technologies according to Euro 3 standard are allowed to be imported. Since most of our vehicles are either Euro-4 or Euro-3 compliant than it should not be a problem. Since Toyota is manufacturing Toyota Hilux in Argentina for its customers in Latin America it may not make sense to import one from Thailand anyway but the price and quality of our parts and accessories still cannot be beat.

Importation of Automobiles in Argentina by individuals

Diplomats Are able to import used or new cars.
Returning Argentine Citizens May import used cars only (one for each member of the couple).
Persons with Permanent Resident Status May import used cars only.
Persons with Temporary Visa May import used cars under temporary admission. The car is only allowed temporary admission for a maximum period of 16 months after which the car must be removed from Argentina.

General Requirements:

Car must enter Argentina within 6 months after shipper/owner arrival.
Car must be under shipper's name.
Importation of new cars is subject to Ministry of Commerce regulations and is limited to certain types of vehicles.

Documentation Required:

Owner's original passport.
Two original B/L's.
Complete car documentation.
Original purchase invoice.
Consulate certificate (issued by the Argentine Consulate at origin).

Duties / Taxes:

Approximately 79% car CIF value for normal cars and 100% for diesel cars.
Allowance is made for two cars per family (under different names).

Argentina

Tariffs: The tariff applied to cars ranges from 12.5-37.5 percent (most at 35 percent). • The tariff applied to trucks ranges from 16.5-37.5 percent (most at 37.5 percent). • The tariff for auto parts (HTS 8707-08) ranges from 16.5-20.5 percent.

MERCOSUR countries (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay) plan to eventually adopt the same rules governing imports and will presumably adopt a common external tariff for automobiles and auto parts. The tariff rates are expected to be between 14-18 percent for auto parts, 30 percent for trucks, and 35 percent for automobiles. In the interim, vehicles imported from other MERCOSUR countries, which do not meet the regional content requirement of 60 percent (and Argentina’s 30 percent sub-regional content requirement), are subject to a 10 percent duty.

Taxes:

Value Added Tax (VAT): cars (21 percent); trucks (10.5 percent)
An additional "advanced" VAT of 6-8 percent (based on CIF value plus the duty and the import statistics fee of 10 percent)
Various provincial sales taxes
Duty Surcharge (0.5 percent)
Statistical tax (3 percent)
A 3 percent advanced profit tax, charged on the custom value of goods

Other Measures:

Import ban on used vehicles Import license required
Import Restrictions: Foreign vehicles that do not have a domestic equivalent are subject to import quotas. This quota system limits imports to a percentage of total domestic production (for example, in 1994 this quota was 10 percent). The rights of the quotas are auctioned off, and the bidder willing to pay the most amounts above the average duty wins the quota. However, dealers can bid on a portion of the quota allotment by offering to pay an additional import duty over the regular 20 percent. Individuals may also participate, along with dealers, in special periodic quota allotments, under the same bidding system. Both individuals and dealers are limited to two imported vehicles per year. Assemblers who also import vehicles are also committed to maintain a higher level of exports than imports.
Import quotas and licensing are required for:
Motor vehicles weighing less than 850kg, greater than 1,500kg and costing less than US$5,500 (HS 8702010101)

Motor vehicles weighing between 850kg but less than 1,500kg with an ex-works price less than US$9,00 (HS 8702010120)

Motor vehicles weighing more than 1,050kg with an ex-works price of less than US$16,000 (HS 8702010140)

Motor vehicles weighing more than 1,050kg with an ex-works price of greater than US$16,000 (HS 8702010160)

Chassis with gearbox in vertical position (HS 8702010161)

Public transportation vehicles weighing less than 1,000kg and more than 1,000kg (HS 8702929001 and HS 8702929099, respectively)

Heavy goods vehicles weighing more than 1,000kg but less than 2,000kg and those weighing more than 2,000kg (HS 8702030104 and HS 8702030105, respectively)
Bilateral Quota System: The Governments of Argentina and Brazil allow local automakers to import a certain number of cars and trucks from each other duty-free. The respective Governments adjust this quota each year.
Official distributors of foreign cars are limited to the importation of finished cars equal in value to the Argentine parts exported by the company.

Exporting from Asia can be tricky as auto exporters and car exporters are dime a dozen. The stereotype of used car salesman is universal and based on some truth. With the advent of Internet the crooks have come out of the woodworks to separate the innocent from their money, Thailand, Singapore, Dubai and United Kingdom are no exception. Caveat emptor - buyer beware - maxim has been heeded by businessmen since the time of the Ancients but it is most relevant when all it takes is a DSL modem, a nerdy kit with some HTML skills to put together a website, some Images (Pics) taken at your competitor's lots and you are in business. We have seen a parade of newbie auto exporters come in, offer great deals for a year or so perpetrating an elaborate Ponzi scheme and then disappear with millions of dollars of their customers very hard earned money. Will you trust a company that has been in business for 1 year or one that has been in business for 100 years and is well respected not only all over Asia but also beyond Asian boundaries. If someone offers you a deal that sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Not all new entrants are crooks but there are some who in their quest for the fast buck wants to cut corners at the expense of the customer. When you work with Jim you have the peace of mind to know that we have been voted Thailand's most trusted dealership and Thailand's most trusted auto exporter five years in a row and it is for this reason that we have over 80% of the auto exporting market share in Thailand and dominate car, pickup, SUV, minivan, truck, bus and machinery exports from Singapore, Dubai and United Kingdom.
