How to Buy Used Lease Cars as a B2B Partner
This page explains how an approved B2B partner buys used lease cars through Kapitan B2B, step by step. The process is the same as for other stock, but lease cars reward a careful condition review before you commit, so that stage gets extra attention here. The order is fixed: approved account, approved documents, purchase request, proforma invoice, payment confirmation, release. A purchase request is not a reservation. Following the steps below helps you move from a lease listing to a released vehicle without delays, while making sure you have assessed condition properly first.
Step 1 — Get an approved B2B account
Start by requesting an approved B2B account. We review your company first, confirming you are a business buyer — a dealer, exporter or reseller — not a private buyer. Once approved, you log in and see more lease car detail than public visitors. This fuller view matters for lease stock, where condition assessment is part of the decision. An approved account alone does not let you request a proforma invoice; document approval is the next step. Keep your company details accurate, as they carry through the whole purchase.
Step 2 — Get your company documents approved
Upload the required company documents. They are reviewed separately from your account and typically include company registration details and a valid VAT number. Document approval is its own step because an account alone is not enough to start a purchase. Only after approval can a proforma invoice be issued for a specific lease car. If a document is missing or unclear, the review pauses until it is provided. Preparing complete documents early clears the way to act on a lease car once you have reviewed it.
Step 3 — Review condition, then send a purchase request
Lease cars are listed with visible-use photos showing real condition. Before you request, review those photos and the available detail to confirm the car meets your resale standard. When you are satisfied, send a purchase request. A purchase request is not a reservation and does not hold the vehicle; availability can change at any time. We confirm requests manually. If the car is gone, we tell you. Doing the condition review first means your request is based on a proper assessment, not just the listing headline.
Step 4 — Proforma invoice and payment
Once your documents are approved and the request is confirmed, we issue a proforma invoice for the lease car. Payment is by bank transfer, and international transfers can take several working days, so plan ahead. After paying, you send payment confirmation. We treat it as proof, but it is valid only after our review and approval. The car is not released on a transfer slip alone; release follows once payment is visible on our account.
Step 5 — Release, export documents and transport
When payment is visible on our account, the lease car is released. Export documentation can be discussed per vehicle and pickup, including EX-A and EUR.1 where applicable and on request. Transport is arranged in consultation. From here, the car and its paperwork move toward export to your market. Having exporter and transport details ready in advance keeps this final stage efficient.
