Comments: 

It doesn't get much easier than this. It was simply a matter of riding the bike to his office. One of his staff loads it onto a purpose built truck. They take it through customs collecting the necessary stamps and load it straight into the container. The stamped carnet was back with us within the hour.

We were a bit concerned about not being able to do this ourselves but our bike arrived exactly as we left it. We flew straight to Perth where he faxed across the bill of lading etc with a copy of my passport on which I used as proof of i.d. This end.

The bike arrived 7 days later. We then paid 220 oz dollars port and handling charges. The carnet was stamped within minutes, as was the quarantine papers. We were charged no fee as the bike was clean, and the man was there only a matter of minutes. I thoroughly recommend using this agent in Singapore.
