Jinan is a city which is formerly known as Tsinan and it’s the acting capital of the Shandong province in the eastern parts of the country. It is an important area which has a crucial role in the overall history of this particular region.

Shipping Methods.

You would have to choose the method of transportation by yourself. You can choose between:

• Ro/Ro – this method requires you to drive the car on the cargo ship on a specifically designated platform where it’s going to be secured for the journey. This is the fastest and cheapest way of water-bound transportation.
• Container shipping – this would involve your vehicle being placed within a sealed container. You can also ship all sorts of belongings, which is pretty convenient. It’s more expensive than Ro/Ro shipping but it also offers increased protection.

Customs at Jinan.

It must be noted that used as well as refurbished auto parts aren’t allowed in the country. What is more, used vehicles are subjected to restrictions. You can’t import motorcycles, diesel engine cars as well as vehicles with right hand drive. China has specific rules of import and some of them include:

• Only left-hand drive cars are allowed.
• You can’t import diesel cars except for jeeps.
• The engine displacement is the main factor when calculating the tax. Keep in mind that the vehicle is considered a luxury good so higher taxes may apply.
