Pakistan's Engineering Development Board (EDB) tightly regulates vehicle imports, with strong preference for local assembly. SKD and CKD are the dominant shipping modes — fully built-up imports face prohibitive duties. The market has growing appetite for PHEVs and range-extenders given the domestic electricity situation, though pure EVs are gaining traction in Karachi and Lahore premium segments.

Every shipment to Pakistan includes our standard export documentation package: Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin (CCPIT-issued in Shanghai), Manufacturer's Technical File, and Marine Insurance Certificate. Market-specific homologation certificates are prepared per the destination's regulatory framework. We flag any model-specific homologation constraints before you sign — we don't let you discover problems at the customs desk.
Standard T/T (30% deposit, 70% against B/L copy) for most orders. L/C at sight for larger shipments (typically above USD 200,000). No cryptocurrency, no Western Union, no split payments. Full terms in every sales contract.
Send us your target vehicle category, target quantity, drive-side requirement (LHD or RHD), and any specific local constraints. We'll return a scoped quotation covering FOB or CIF pricing, confirmed shipping mode, lead time, and documentation package — typically within one Shanghai business day.
For Pakistan, we typically recommend shipping modes that match the destination's tariff structure. Specific recommendation depends on quantity and vehicle category — we confirm per RFQ. Port of entry is Karachi (Port Qasim) · KICT.
Approximately 14–18 days sea transit from Shanghai. This is sea transit only — add 30–45 days for order-to-loading at Shanghai, and allow additional time for customs clearance and registration at your end.
Core documentation includes Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin (CCPIT-issued), Manufacturer's Technical File, and Marine Insurance Certificate. Market-specific homologation certificates are added per destination — we prepare these per shipment.
We work with selected customs-clearance and (where applicable) bonded-assembly partners in most of our active corridors. Local-partner introductions are available for established customers; for first-time dealers we coordinate directly with your nominated forwarder.
One unit. We accept single-vehicle orders for every active corridor. Container consolidation with other buyers' shipments is possible for some routes to reduce per-unit freight cost.
