International Shipping of High-End Automobiles to China

International automobile shipping services allow customers to transport their cars from the United States to virtually any country in the world. All types of vehicles are moved worldwide on a daily basis: vintage, contemporary, high-end, and economy cars are all candidates for international shipping.

However, the type of automobile that is shipped sometimes varies by country. For example, vintage automobiles are typically transported to Western European countries, like Belgium, Germany, France, and Switzerland, while contemporary economy cars are shipped to the Middle East and West African countries. China receives the brunt of high-end luxury vehicles.

These trends don’t occur accidentally, but instead follow markets and applicable shipping regulations. So why does China usually receive luxury cars?

Any international shipping company can tell you that China is unique for its high import taxes and additional fees. This makes it difficult for customers to decide to ship an average-priced car: it is simply not worth the cost. For that reason, most automobiles that are transported from the United States are high-end vehicles. It is just more sensible to ship a high-value car if the import tariffs are high.

However, this does not usually pose a dilemma for shipping companies. International shipping services can help a customer transport their luxury car to China. They will always be offered both roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) and containerized shipping, on which they can decide based on availability at the port and the price.

No matter whether a client is shipping a 1968 Camaro, a 2012 Honda Accord, or a 2016 Mercedes Benz, international shipping to China is no problem for an experienced company. 

International Shipping of Goods via Air Freight

When most people think of international shipping, they picture a large vessel traveling thousands of miles across oceans. They visualize hundreds of neatly packed containers holding diverse items. They imagine dozens of cars stacked and fastened next to each other, with construction equipment, such as cranes and bulldozers, not too far off. And they aren’t wrong. However, there is a different option for transporting goods overseas with international shipping companies.

Many shipping customers opt to move their cargo using another method. Transporting cargo via air freight is a viable alternative to ocean freight for some, depending on the commodity, the client’s budget, and the time constraint placed on the service.

Primarily, the customer should advise the company of the nature of their cargo: is it an automobile, a crane, or just various personal effects? Shipping via air freight is only feasible for certain types of cargo: if the client is interested in transporting a car, they should probably stick to ocean freight.

The biggest concern for customers seeking international shipping services is typically the issue of cost and affordability. Shipping most cargo via air freight is usually more affordable. However, the cost is entirely dependent on the cargo involved as well as the nation of origin and the final destination.

Finally, many costumers opt for shipping via air freight because they have a deadline to meet. Whether the shipper is a company, an organization, or possibly an individual moving overseas to start a job, air freight is a faster way to move cargo to another country.

No matter what the motivation for considering air freight over container shipping, it is important to communicate openly with the international shipping company in order to obtain the company’s advice about the best method of shipping for the particular situation.

International Shipping Restrictions

Although reliable international shipping companies can offer to ship your cargo to almost anywhere in the world. However, there are a few exceptions. 

Because of the numerous international conflicts currently occurring, international shipping services to some countries are restricted. 

Some of these restricted countries are:

• Iran

• Cuba 

• Syria

• Russia

• North Korea

• Sudan

• Somalia

• Iraq

• and many more. 

Some of these countries have trade embargoes set on them by the United States, and the United Nations, while other countries cannot be accessed at all. 

Conflicts like the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the destabilization of both Sudan and Syria, the tension between the U.S and North Korea, all dictate what international shipping services can and cannot do. 

For international shipping to other countries, K International Transport can help ship almost any cargo overseas through ports in the United States. However, anyone interested in international shipping should also know how the international political climate affects where items can cannot be shipped.
