Did you import the car yourself??

To release the car from Japan and allow it to go on the boat you need your official japanese de-registration document. This certifies the sale and intention to export. If you import it yourself you will get this (looks like purpley colour paper) along with you bill of laden that you needed to release the car from the docks/boat and you bill of sale.

Althout you do surrender this original document, if you contact your agent in Japan (or get the company you bought from to do this) then get a official copy sent over and product it at the police station.

Generally all the stolen ones that reach the UK are brought through the middle east through europe into UK. If your car came directly from japan then id be very relieved as its HIGHLY unlikely that its stolen the japanese customs and UK customs are extremely strict now and have pretty much stopped the stolen (originally coined as 'grey') imports' coming into this country.

Get that document along the the original bill of sale from japan and there wont be any confusion.

Check your engine number it should usually be within about 20 of you chassis number eg GF EK9-1206645 / B16B-1206637
EK9's are too low value and not worth stealing in Japan so you will be ok there.
