Where exporters run Carfax
A $3 Carfax at the right stage of the shipping pipeline catches issues that would cost you an entire container at the destination port, or a rejection by the buyer that ends with you eating the return freight.
Auction bid pre-screen
Before you bid at Copart, IAAI, or Manheim, run the Carfax on candidates. Flood-branded vehicles out of hurricane auctions are the #1 cause of destination rejections.
Pre-container inspection
After acquisition, before loading. One last Carfax confirms nothing has changed in state records since purchase, and gives you a documented PDF for the manifest.
Buyer disclosure packet
Overseas buyers increasingly demand a Carfax before wiring. Include it in your sale documentation and your deals close faster.
Customs & compliance file
Keep every Carfax in the dashboard. If customs or a buyer disputes a vehicle's history later, you have the PDF with a timestamp from your pre-shipment check.
Red flags that get containers rejected
What to look for on the Carfax PDF before you commit to shipping.
Flood or water damage branding
Many destination countries refuse entry on flood-branded titles. A Carfax flags it before the container books.
Salvage or rebuilt title history
Even if the current title is clean, a prior salvage brand follows the VIN internationally.
Odometer rollback alert
Destination buyers verify odometers against Carfax. Any discrepancy kills trust and the sale.
Last-reported location = hurricane state
Cars quickly re-titled out of Florida, Louisiana, or Texas after storm seasons are the biggest risk for hidden flood damage.
Open safety recalls
Some destination markets require recall resolution before import.
Unresolved frame or structural damage
Hard stop for most buyers in Africa, Central America, and Southeast Asia.
Exporter FAQ
Is this the official Carfax PDF that destination buyers trust?+
Yes. Same PDF, same data, same formatting. Buyers overseas who verify a VIN against Carfax directly will see matching information.
Can I pull history on auction vehicles before I bid?+
Yes. Any 17-character VIN works, regardless of title status. For salvage auctions, that's exactly the use case.
Do you support bulk VIN upload?+
The dashboard supports repeat lookups and credits never expire. For automated bulk workflows at 100+/month, email us for API access.
What if a VIN returns no data?+
Automatic refund. Rare, but happens with very new builds or some fleet-only VINs.
How long is a Carfax PDF valid for shipping docs?+
The Carfax is a point-in-time snapshot. For documentation purposes, most exporters run a fresh one within 30 days of shipment.
Flag flood and salvage before you ship.
Running Carfax on every exported VIN takes 2 minutes and saves containers from being pulled at the port.
