Updated 2026-06-26. kei truck import specialist ships across British Columbia and the rest of Canada.
Headquartered in Grande Prairie, Alberta, Samurai Trucks fully services every truck — and customizes it to spec if you want — at our shop before shipping it to Chilliwack and delivering Canada-wide.
Home to around 100,000 people, Chilliwack sits roughly 701 km from our Grande Prairie, Alberta shop in a straight line.
For a farm or rural property near Chilliwack, the case for a kei truck is mostly about right-sizing. Most chore work doesn't need a one-ton, and running one for it just burns fuel and compacts soft ground. A kei truck carries a few hundred kilograms, fits through every standard gate, and sips regular gas while it does the rounds. We've been importing them into British Columbia since 2001, and the conversation with Chilliwack customers is always the same three questions: how it registers, how it ships, and where the parts come from.
A kei truck fits farm work near Chilliwack because it was built for farm work — just on the other side of the Pacific. In Japan these trucks live between paddies, plots, barns and sheds, and that maps cleanly onto a British Columbia mixed operation: chore truck, fence truck, feed-and-tool truck, livestock-check truck.
Three things make the difference day to day: it fits through every standard gate, it runs all day on a small tank of regular gas, and it's cheap and easy to keep going. Selectable 4WD with a real low range handles a muddy yard or a snow-packed lane without drama.
The honest limit is towing and highway hauling — a kei truck isn't a one-ton and shouldn't be asked to be. But for the in-yard, low-speed, high-frequency chore work that fills most farm days around Chilliwack, it's the right-sized answer, and the Canadian parts pipeline behind it keeps it working through the season.
Registering a kei truck in Chilliwack runs through ICBC. The standard sequence is: clear federal customs and Transport Canada at the border (kei trucks 15+ years old are import-eligible), complete the Designated Inspection Facility (DIF) at a licensed inspection station, then plate at the registry counter. The federal 15-year import rule applies the same way it does anywhere in Canada outside Quebec.
Some Chilliwack registry agents have processed many kei trucks; others have processed none. If you encounter pushback — an agent who isn't sure how to enter a right-hand-drive Japanese vehicle — that's a paperwork and supervisor-loop-in issue, not a legal barrier. The truck is admissible. Sometimes you wait while the agent loops in a supervisor; sometimes you come back the next day after the file has been reviewed. We don't pretend the Chilliwack counter experience is uniform across the province, but it does land successfully for our customers, and we walk every buyer through what to bring.

Shipping to Chilliwack is cross-mountain — we use a combination of trailer and rail-deck depending on the time of year and the volume of trucks moving at once. Coastal BC and Vancouver Island deliveries include the ferry crossing where applicable. We'll quote landed-Chilliwack on request.
We ship across Canada and have for over two decades. The Chilliwack delivery is part of any sale we quote, and we'll route the truck around weather and seasonal road conditions rather than promise an aggressive date we can't keep.
The single biggest determinant of how a kei truck holds up in Chilliwack long-term is the parts pipeline behind it. Parts and service run out of our Grande Prairie, Alberta shop and we ship parts across the country — the full catalogue is at parts.html and the British Columbia-relevant pages link from there. Most Chilliwack-area mechanics will install parts you supply, and that's typically the fastest path: we ship the part, your mechanic does the install. For anything we don't stock in Canada, sourcing from Japan is a couple-of-weeks turnaround through our partner network.
If you're stuck on a fitment question or trying to figure out whether a particular part fits your specific chassis (DA63T, DA52T, S100P, HA6, etc.), call us at 780-533-3303 and we'll walk you through it. Jdm / kei vehicle importer, 25+ years deep, talks parts every day.
Buying a kei truck from us is straightforward in the abstract and full of small details in practice, and we walk every Chilliwack customer through both. The short version: we keep kei trucks in stock and have more arriving regularly, so depending on what you're after, your truck may already be on the ground or inbound — and for a specific build we'll source it to spec through our Japan network and inspect it before it ships. Either way you take delivery landed-Canada with all duties and taxes already paid. The longer version is the conversation we have on the phone.
We keep kei trucks in stock and have more arriving regularly, so depending on what you're after, your truck may already be here or inbound; for a specific spec we'll source it to order through our Japan network. Either way the order of operations is the same: a quick scoping call to understand the use case, a written quote with landed pricing, a deposit, then delivery to Chilliwack — federal duties and taxes already paid, with the DIF inspection step at a British Columbia inspection station and plating at the registry as the only provincial steps left.
Things we always confirm before deposit, especially for Chilliwack customers: that the spec we're proposing actually matches the use case (a 2WD Carry isn't the right truck for a forestry road, and a 4WD low-range Hijet is overkill for a property runabout); that the parts pipeline for the chassis we're picking is healthy; and that the registration path makes sense given the customer's specific situation (some buyers really don't need road registration and we'll say so). That up-front honesty is, frankly, why customers come back and refer their neighbours.
