Import Cars from China to Mexico
Chinese brands — BYD, Chery, MG, and Jetour among them — already have real, growing official presence in Mexico, and freight from China to Manzanillo or Lazaro Cardenas starts at $4,785 USD, 16–24 days transit. One thing worth being upfront about: Mexico's rules for permanently importing a used vehicle as an individual are genuinely restrictive, separate from new-vehicle dealer sales — worth confirming your specific eligibility before assuming a straightforward path.
Contact DriveSino directly with your specific situation so we can help you understand what's realistically possible.

Dazi e Tasse di Importazione per il Messico
Mexico applies its general import tax on vehicles from countries without a free trade agreement covering autos — China doesn't have one with Mexico — plus 16% IVA (VAT). Independent of the tax rate, Mexico's rules for permanently importing a used vehicle as an individual (as opposed to buying new through an official dealer) are genuinely restrictive — confirm your specific eligibility before assuming duty is the only consideration.
