Why Import Your Vehicle Internationally?
Shipping your car abroad can often be more economical than purchasing a new one at your destination. However, the process can be complex, involving strict customs regulations, import taxes, and documentation requirements. DocShipper Moving simplifies the entire procedure by handling paperwork, duties, and logistics, ensuring that your vehicle is properly imported, compliant, and ready for use upon arrival.
Comprehensive service
From customs clearance to international transport and final delivery, we oversee every phase of your car’s relocation to guarantee a fully managed and compliant process.
Expert handling
Our team provides professional assistance with all necessary documents, vehicle inspections, and re-export formalities if required. Every car is treated with the same level of care and precision as your personal effects.
Steps to Import Your Car Internationally
If you plan to keep your car abroad for a limited period (typically up to six months), you may be eligible for a temporary import permit, which can exempt you from paying customs duties. Required documents usually include the vehicle registration certificate, a valid driver’s license, and a pro forma invoice.
Important: This option is available only when your vehicle is shipped together with your household belongings.
For long-term relocations, our team manages the full importation process — including compliance checks, homologation (if needed), and registration under the local regulations of your destination country.
We assist you with the customs clearance process at the port of entry. Our team ensures that all documents are submitted and taxes are paid.
Duties and taxes are calculated based on the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value. Customs duties can be as high as 200%, and taxes depend on the engine capacity and value of your vehicle.
Note: When you move, we help you reduce these costs by taking care of the logistics and documentation for you.
