EST. 2001 — CANADA’S FIRST JDM/KEI IMPORTER
Kei Truck & JDM Import Service — 25 Years Experience
25 Years Importing Japanese Vehicles
SamuraiTrucks has been Canada's first JDM/Kei vehicle importer since 2001. We've imported hundreds of kei trucks and vans, Hilux Surfs, Land Cruisers, Patrols, Skylines, Delicas, and more — and we've done it the hard way, with physical inspections, AMVIC licensing, and a real Canadian shop for pre-delivery service.
How Our Import Process Works
- You tell us what you want. Chassis code, year range, budget, must-haves (diesel, 4WD, manual, etc.).
- We source candidates from Japan. Auction, dealer stock, private seller — our network has all three.
- Physical inspection in Japan. Our in-country partner shop lays eyes on the vehicle before the hammer falls. No sight-unseen gambles.
- Export and shipping. We handle Japanese export paperwork, container booking, insurance, and ocean freight to Vancouver or Halifax.
- Canadian import clearance. 15-year rule verification, customs duties, GST, and provincial PPSA checks.
- Pre-delivery inspection in our Alberta shop. Compression test, fluid change, safety inspection, any needed repairs.
- Delivery to you. Pick-up in Alberta, or flat-rate shipping to anywhere in Canada.
Why Work With a Licensed Dealer
Brokers take the money, order from Yahoo Auctions sight-unseen, and hope for the best. When something's wrong, good luck getting it fixed. AMVIC-licensed dealers like SamuraiTrucks are bonded and regulated, and we have a real shop to fix problems before the vehicle leaves Alberta. That's the difference.
