• Assisted Live Auction Bidding: We grant local clients direct access to premier US dealer lanes.
Buyers sit in our offices to evaluate vehicle condition reports, run vehicle history verifications,
and place bids in real time under our licensed corporate umbrella.
• Inland Trans-US Logistics: Once a vehicle is won, our dispatch network handles fast flatbed
extraction from any US auction yard directly to secure exit terminals, including Newark,
Savannah, Houston, and Jacksonville.
• Turnkey Port Clearance (ICUMS Integration): We operate in strict alignment with the
Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA). Utilizing the automated Integrated Customs Management
System (ICUMS), we calculate standardized Home Delivery Values (HDV) and handle
customs declarations swiftly at the Port of Tema.
4. Compliance, Standard Rules & Quality Shield
Universal Autobid protects client investments by maintaining absolute compliance with local
statutory mandates. We eliminate the risk of port delays, heavy penalties, or asset seizures:
• Age Cap Enforcement: We actively filter and block bids on vehicles that violate the strict 15-
year age cap limit from their manufacture date, adhering completely to the latest safety
guidelines set by the Ghana Standards Authority (GSA).
• Pre-Export PVoC Inspections: Every vehicle won through our platform undergoes the
mandatory Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) inside the United States before
loading, ensuring a valid Certificate of Conformity (CoC) accompanies the manifest to Ghana.

5. Strategic Vision
To remain West Africa’s most reliable link to global automotive inventory by expanding physical
“Autobid Lounges” across major regional hubs in Kumasi and Takoradi, continuously lowering
transit costs through scale, and digitizing the import experience for every Ghanaian driver.
