How Payment Works — Step by Step

We use a staged payment structure to protect your investment at every step.

Sourcing Deposit

A small deposit to begin sourcing. Covers search, shortlisting and communication with sellers. Applied to the final vehicle cost.

Inspection Payment (optional)

If you request an inspection, we arrange a visual condition check (USD 150 per vehicle), subject to supplier access. The fee is paid before the inspection is carried out.

Vehicle Purchase

Once you approve the vehicle (and the inspection report, if you ordered one), you pay the vehicle cost. The car is then purchased on your behalf from the Korean market.

Shipping Payment

Shipping costs are paid before the vehicle is loaded at Busan port. We confirm the exact amount and sailing schedule in advance.

Accepted Payment Methods

SWIFT international wire transfer — from any country, in USD or other major currencies
Bank transfer (CIS banks) — Kazakh, Russian, Uzbek and Kyrgyz banks accepted
UAE dirham transfers — for clients based in the UAE
Cryptocurrency — USDT (TRC-20) available on request

We will confirm the exact payment details for your transaction before any transfer is made. All payments go directly to our registered Korean company account.

Inspection on Request

Order an optional inspection and receive a photo and video report before we purchase the vehicle. You decide — no obligation to proceed.

TOPEX AUTO is a legally registered Korean business. You can verify our company registration details before making any payment.

Documented at Every Stage

We provide receipts, export certificates and vehicle documents at each stage of the process, so you always have confirmation of payment.

Yes. We are a registered Korean company with a verified Korean business bank account. International SWIFT transfers to Korean accounts are a standard and secure method used by thousands of importers worldwide.

If the inspection reveals issues you are not comfortable with, we will search for alternative options. When you have ordered an inspection, the vehicle purchase payment is only made after you confirm its report — you are never locked in.
