Volvo Military Sales Program
Volvo Military Sales Program
Military personnel stationed outside their home country can enjoy substantial benefits by purchasing a new Volvo under the Volvo Military Sales Program. Since the mid-1950s, the Volvo Military Sales organization, part of Volvo Car International Customer Sales (VCIC), has sold hundreds of thousands of Volvos worldwide to the military community. The Volvo Military Sales program is regarded as one of the most comprehensive programs in the military market, designed to make your purchase safe and convenient. We offer cars for delivery to most areas in the world (including Japan and Korea), with specifications to meet those required in your new country of residence. The substantial price advantage for military personnel is only one of the reasons you shouldn’t let this offer from Volvo Military Sales pass you by!

You choose the colors, options and accessories creating your own personal Volvo. You also have the opportunity to choose from a limited amount of pre-ordered factory stock units for quick delivery, all part of the service at Volvo Military Sales. We may also have some stock cars or demo models for sale at our offices in Korea, Okinawa and in mainland Japan for customers already in the country. These vehicles will be specially priced but may not be eligible for offers advertised by Volvo at the time of sale. Prices for all stock advertised can vary and may be different from that shown on this site, please contact us for accurate pricing and for further details.
Vehicle test drives
Test drives of the Volvo range are available and actively encouraged. Please contact your local Volvo Military Sales representative for details.
How to order
With your Volvo Military Sales representative, you will review all the available models, options and accessories of the Volvo of your choice. Once you have selected your desired specifications, Volvo Military Sales will provide you with a Special Military Price for your vehicle, delivered to the location of your choice. Volvo Military Sales will also include the relevant Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) plus the Dealer Invoice cost, to allow you to fully compare the savings through the Volvo Military Sales Program.
Our prices
For US delivery, we will need to add the costs for shipment to an authorized Volvo dealer of your choice in the US. This will include overseas freight, marine insurance, US Import Duty and port fees plus inland destination, dealer prep and delivery fees. For European delivery, our prices reflect the total cost for pick up at the factory in Sweden. Customs plates and insurance would be an extra cost (quotes available). For Japan or Korea delivery, we will need to add all costs of shipment including overseas freight, marine insurance, applicable Customs Duty and port fees plus inland destination, dealer prep and delivery fees. In Japan you will also need to add the cost of emissions testing, recycle fee plus Japanese registration and road tax. (Please contact your local representative for full explanation and details of costs).
Additional costs
For US delivery, you will be required to pay the relevant State Sales Tax and registration fees applicable to the state you register the vehicle in. Further advice on this should be obtained from the appropriate local tax office.
Timescale
The time an order takes depends on a number of factors including available production slots at the factory. Further information will be provided to you once we know your intended timescales. Once the car has been built it takes 6-8 weeks for delivery to the US depending on its destination (10 weeks for Hawaii and Alaska). Japan and Korea delivery times can vary, so please contact your local Volvo Military Sales representative for details.
When to order
As the majority of our Volvo Military Sales vehicles are ordered to each customers exact specifications, we generally require a minimum of 4 months to deliver to the USA, though this depends on the popularity of the model. We can, however, order a new Volvo for delivery throughout the current model year, which means for example, a customer ordering from Volvo Military Sales in October could order a new Volvo for a delivery date in the US of August the following year.
Payment
You will already have paid an initial deposit to secure the order. The remaining payment and/or finance monies are due prior to your vehicle’s scheduled date to leave the factory, for shipment to the US or Japan.
Financing
Volvo does not offer factory financing. We do however, work very closely with most Military Credit Unions and can recommend Navy Federal Credit Union, Pentagon Federal Credit Union, USAA and Community Bank, who provide very competitive rates and are very familiar with the Volvo Military Sales Program.
Vehicle Destination
Your new Volvo will be delivered to an authorized Volvo retailer of your choice in the US. Alternatively, you have the option of delivery overseas to Japan, Okinawa, Korea, Guam, Europe or even a VIP factory delivery in Sweden.
Volvo Home Shipment Program
Customers taking delivery of their car in Europe may be able to take advantage of the Volvo Home Shipment program when returning to the US. Please ask for further details.
US Delivery
When your car arrives at the Volvo dealership they will contact you to arrange delivery of the vehicle and provide you with all the paperwork to help you register the car. They will fully prepare the vehicle and ask you to check it over to ensure all is to your satisfaction prior to your delivery. You will then be required to sign an inspection sheet. It then remains to take possession of your brand new Volvo and enjoy many miles of happy driving!
