JUMVEA

Japan Used Motor Vehicle Exporters Association

AutospEcs Ltd. is a member of JUMVEA Authorized by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan.

In its present situation, the export of used Japanese vehicles has been growing along with the export of new vehicles produced by Japanese car manufacturers who boast the highest technological level among automobile-producing nations. Based on the excellent quality and fair prices of Japanese vehicles, used vehicle exports from Japan have continued to increase over the past thirty years. Recently, the number of exported vehicles exceeded 1 million. These vehicles are exported to 180 countries around the world, including, two large markets such as Russia and New Zealand. In the future, further increases of Japanese used export are expected especially to the developing countries whose economic foundation is now being established.
Meanwhile, however, amid the prolonged stagnation of the Japanese economy, sluggish sales of new cars have been accompanied by a shortage in the supply of quality used vehicles. And in addition to eased various regulations with the implementation of the liberalization of trade, the effects of the elimination of those regulations, and more stringent competition due to an increase in the number of new exporters, there has also been a sharp increase in illicit export, including the export of stolen vehicles and illegally rebuilt or remodeled vehicles, resulting in a breakdown of order in the export industry. With this situation it caused a deterioration of the environment surrounding the export of used motor vehicles industry which is resulting big social problems.
Amid such a situation, our association has continued to operate idealistically to contribute to the sound distribution of used vehicles, endeavoring to establish order in the export of used vehicles, improving the social and economic standing of our members, trying to export the quality vehicles, and, in order to satisfy the needs of customers in various and numerous countries, strengthen our cooperative relations with the Governments of nations (and related organizations) around the world which import used motor vehicles.

Purpose of JUMVEA

Our association began on September 14, 1995 as the Japan Used Motor Vehicle Exporters Alliance. On June 1, 1997, with the approval of the Minister of International Trade and Industry, our association was incorporated as the JAPAN USED MOTOR VEHICLE EXPORTERS ASSOCIATION.

The major reason of our establishment was the drastically eased regulations regarding the export and the influence of the simplification of business, which caused that it had become possible for anyone to easily engage the export business, and the sharp increase in the number of exporters of used motor vehicles. As a result there appeared more stringent competition and a rapid increase in illegal exports, including the export of stolen vehicles and illegally rebuilt or remodeled vehicles. Preventing such illegal conduct and unfair export has become an urgent task for the used motor vehicle export industry. Meanwhile, the demand for used motor vehicles was expected to further increase in countries around the world where, an economic foundation is in the process of being established, because of the excellent quality and fair prices of Japanese vehicles.
Amid such circumstances, the Cooperative Business Association was established as an organization to better cope with the coming age. Developing more profitable markets, ensuring the availability of products for export, and rationalizing shipping, with Government assistance it is the aim of this association to establish a sound international market for used motor vehicle industry by strengthening cooperative relations with the Governments of nations (and related organizations) around the world which import used motor vehicles, establishing order in the used motor vehicle export industry, and endeavoring to develop that business.
