What documents do I need to import a used excavator into Zambia?
<p>For a used excavator shipped to Zambia, we issue the export documents from our side: bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. The machine is held in our yards in Tianjin, Guangzhou or Ningbo and loaded from Tianjin, Ningbo, Nansha or Shekou, depending on the unit and the route. We ship FOB or CIF, by RoRo, container or flat-rack according to the machine size.</p><p>Every unit goes through a 150-point pre-shipment inspection with photos and video before loading, so you can see the exact machine you are buying. Payment is by T/T: deposit first, then the balance before loading, with the invoice issued in USD.</p><p>Import rules for Zambia, including duty rates, age limits and any certification the unit must meet, change and depend on the exact machine and route. We confirm the current requirements for your specific excavator before you pay, so nothing is assumed.</p><p>Send the model you need on WhatsApp +86 150 5227 3039 and we will confirm availability, shipping method and the documents for your Zambia shipment.</p>
For Zambia we load from Nansha / Shekou, Ningbo-Zhoushan, Tianjin Port. Every machine ships with an invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; the freight quote names the port you nominate.
Every listing here is one physical machine with its own stock number, hours meter and specific FOB price — not a catalogue entry and not a "from" range. Units are sold one at a time, so the yard list changes daily; confirm availability for this exact unit before you commit.
Before payment you can verify the actual unit: we send a start-up video walkaround, photos of the machine and its data plate, and the readings we found. A third-party inspection at the yard can also be arranged on request.
The machine is loaded from our partner ports in China and travels with a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin. The FOB price covers the machine at the port of loading; freight, insurance and import duty are quoted per destination once you tell us the port you import through.
For your route we name the loading port, the documents the shipment carries and what your broker needs to clear the unit. Duty rates and age limits we have not verified are not published here — send us the destination and we tell you what applies to that shipment.
We are an independent used-excavator export trading company based in Hefei, China, shipping since 2014. We are not an authorised dealer for any manufacturer; brand names are used only to describe the machines we trade.
Send us the stock number or the model you are looking at, together with your destination port, and we reply with the unit, its own FOB price and the loading options for that shipment.
The loading port depends on where the machine was sourced and where it is going. The freight quote names the discharge port you nominate. Country duty and age limits we have not verified are not published here.
