Auto Parallel Imports

Through the government-supported parallel import program, more Chinese consumers enjoy easy access to overseas premium vehicles like Porsche and Landrover, and their enthusiasm has sparked sales amid softening sales in the broader market in recent years. 

Unlike traditional imports, the parallel-import scheme allows local auto dealers to directly purchase vehicles from foreign market, and prices for parallel import automobiles, most of which are premium ones, are usually 15 percent lower than dealers authorized by automakers. 

China started to pilot the parallel-import plan in its Shanghai free trade zone in 2015 and later extended it to other free trade zones, including Guangdong, Tianjin and Fujian. 

The government sees the program as a key measure to boost its ongoing supply-side structural reform, which could further facilitate the auto trade and provide more consumer choice. 

In 2016, the Chinese government issued a guideline on parallel import cars, asking authorities to streamline procedures related with the program to cut clearance costs for dealers and improve registration services for parallel imported vehicles. 

More firms, including State-owned giants, have also stepped in. There are over a hundred parallel imports dealers and representatives from nine Chinese ports are in business. 

The rapidly growing business has even attracted market leaders in auto imports, like Sinomach Automobiles, an automotive trading service provider under the China National Machinery Industry Corporation (Sinomach), which started its parallel import business in 2017. 

At Sino-Atlantic Inc., we help Chinese parallel import auto companies to source high quality autos from North America and Europe, hoping to push the price of imported cars closer to the international market.
