REQUEST DEALER PRICE TODAYSteering Orientation & LHD Options for Ghana
Ghana regulations mandate Left-Hand Drive (LHD) vehicles for road registration. We provide three reliable pathways to ensure your JDM import complies with DVLA standards.
1. Factory-Original LHD Sourcing
We actively bid on factory-original Left-Hand Drive units available directly at Japanese auctions (USS, TAA, CAA). These include European/US specs and diplomatic vehicles registered in Tokyo—requiring no mechanical modifications whatsoever.
2. Transshipment Hub Conversion
Vehicles can be routed via free-zone hubs (such as Dubai JAFZA) prior to arriving in Ghana. Professional conversion engineering yards install complete LHD steering racks, dashboards, and re-routed wiring looms to factory quality standards.
3. In-Country Local Conversion
If you prefer shipping your RHD unit directly to Tema Port, conversions can be handled locally in Accra or Tema. We advise using accredited engineering yards that install genuine OEM LHD donor kits to pass mandatory DVLA roadworthiness checks.
