Chinese regulation on importing and exporting verhicles

The Chinese regulation on importing vehicles is complex: the rules often change and can differ depending on where the vehicle is imported. Translations of new regulations often come late or are not provided. There are only several ports where vehicles can be imported. To make it even more complex: in some ports only passenger-cars can be imported, while in other ports only commercial vehicles can be imported. TTCAC has a large database concerning all these issues and keeps in very close touch with the lawmaking-process concerning vehicles. We can provide a detailled report about importing every kind of vehicle into China.


European regulation on importing and exporting verhicles

The European regulation on importing vehicles is since the implementation of EU-law much more clear than before, when every country had it's own rules about importing vehicles. However, since the EU-laws are based on compromise between the EU-countries, it is still a huge and complex regulation-package. And even though most regulations are embedded in EU-law, the EU-countries still can have different rules on very specific subjects such as vehicles for autoshows, small serie vehicles, environment-tax and more. TTCAC has al those rules at hand and we can provide every exporter from China a detailled report about exporting vehicles to Europe.


Market acccess to China

Importing a vehicle in China is one step, getting it on the market is the second. Distribution, establishing a dealernetwork, promotion, warranties, maintenance are all important. The regulations for each of those subjects differs from one province to another. For a lot of those processes, a Chinese partner is required by law. Furthermore, China is not one market, consumers in the North-West have different expectations from a vehicle than consumers in the South-East. However, all those markets are worth exploring. TTCAC has local knowledge about and contacts in almost every Chinese province and can provide a marketscan and introduce you to local partners.


Market acccess to Europe

Importing a vehicle in Europe is the first step in a long and often hard way. Distribution, establishing a dealernetwork, promotion, warranties, maintenance are all important. Regulations for each of those subjects can differ between different countries. European consumers are very conscious about brands so brandbuilding is very important, it took a long time before Korean cars were 'accepted' in Europe, just like it took Japanese brands a long time. TTCAC has, trough patrneships, contacts in most countries in Europe and in Northen Europe in particular. Trough those partners, we can provide a marketscan for every single market and introduce you to local partners.


Fairs and exhibitions

Each year China and Europe have dozens of fairs and exhibitions about all kind of vehicles and vehicle related subjects; for passengercars, commercial vehicles, special vehicles, after market, parts, and the list is far from complete. The fairs and exhibitions are not only different, they are in different cities, provinces/countries as well. TTCAC has a database and agenda with all fairs and exhibitions in both China and Europe. We can provide a advice on where how and when to show your product, so it has the most chance to attract the customers you want.
