Bare Camper

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the import process take?

Typically 8–12 weeks from auction win to Australian delivery. This includes shipping (4–5 weeks), quarantine (1 week), compliance (1–2 weeks), and registration.

What is the $3,000 deposit for?

The $3,000 hold is fully refundable and secures your chosen van while we finalise paperwork and financing. It goes towards your final purchase price.

What does compliance cost?

Compliance typically costs around $2,200 and includes a roadworthy inspection, any required modifications, and an Australian compliance plate.

Can I inspect the van before buying?

Japanese auction vans come with a graded inspection sheet (grade 3–5). We can also arrange independent inspections at the auction yard for a fee.

Do you handle registration?

Yes — we handle Queensland registration as part of our standard service. Interstate rego can be arranged at additional cost.

What warranty is included?

Imported vehicles don't come with manufacturer warranty. We provide a 1-month warranty on compliance work and all Bare Camper fit-outs come with a 12-month warranty.
