Question 1

What exactly does Achieve Exports do?

Accepted Answer

Achieve Exports is a Japan-based company that operates by purchasing cars on our clients' behalf, then arranging for export to the desired destination. Cars are sourced from all across Japan: auctions, dealerships, even private owners. Upon purchase, cars are transported to our partner shipping yards across the country while we prepare the car for export.

Question 4

How can I trust you?

Accepted Answer

We know that being overseas can make this process difficult, and we understand that not everyone is able to visit us in-person (our offices in Tokyo are open to anyone!). Establishing a business in Japan as a foreigner is a time-consuming and difficult process where the Japanese government carefully vets all applicants both internally and in their home country. Further, considerable background information and lengthy interviews with banks, police departments, and other institutions make opening export-related businesses in Japan particularly difficult, with harsh punishments for non-compliance.

To make a long story short: we didn't go through all of these processes for nothing.

But don't trust us. Let our long list of partners worldwide speak for us instead: we are here to help you achieve.
