What is the Safest Way to Ship My Car? How to Ship A Car Overseas from the USA

There are two very popular questions we always receive from customers who are shipping a car overseas for the first time:

• Question #1: What is the difference between roll-on / roll-off (ro/ro) international car shipping and container shipping? What is the least expensive way to ship my car?
• Question #2: What is the safest way to ship my car?

The above questions are easy to answer, and as one of the best international car shipping companies in the United States, you can trust that we will provide you with the safest and most affordable international car shipping service.  We want to make sure that all of our fist-time customers have a general understanding of how overseas car shipping from the United States works.

Considering driving your car across the ocean to its new home overseas?  Trust us...there are safer ways to ship your car overseas from the United States!  Below we clear up some questions, and "clear the way" for you to ship your car from the USA with K International!

What is the difference between roll-on / roll-off (ro/ro) international car shipping and container shipping? What is the least expensive way to ship my car?

Roll-On / Roll-Off shipping vessels are specially designed for all rolling cargo.  Cars and other wheeled cargo are simply driven onto the vessel and secured inside.  Because roll-on / roll-off shipping requires minimal handling and you do not have to "rent" a container to put it into, it is usually the least expensive way to ship a car overseas.

The second option for international car shipping is in a container.  The car is loaded inside a 20' or if it is more than 1 car, a 40' container, and it stays inside this container while it is being shipped.  Normally, cars with a high value are shipped inside a container to protect the car from being handled too many times in order to lesson the chance of damage.  Also, customers shipping 2-3 cars at a time can save money loading their cars inside one container.  A third reason for using a container is for customers who need to ship other personal items with their car including furniture, household goods, and clothing.  When shipping a car on a ro/ro vessel you cannot keep any personal items inside the car.  Because the car has to be professionally loaded into the container, the cost to ship a car overseas in a container is normally more expensive than ro/ro.

What is the safest way to ship my car? 

People normally feel that container shipping is safer because no one will handle the car except the warehouse.  But in general, both methods of overseas car shipping from the United States are safe.  The car is well protected inside a ro/ro vessel and it is not exposed to the elements.  The inside of a ro/ro vessel is clean, and it is even air-conditioned!  Your car will travel across the ocean in style and comfort!

Whether you are looking to ship your car overseas on a ro/ro ship or in a container, you have plenty of safe and affordable international car shipping options.  For more information on our international car transport services from the United States, give us a call at 212-267-6400 or on Skype at kinternationalny.  To receive international car shipping quotes from the United States, send us an email at sales@kinternational.com.  We will respond to all car shipping rate requests within 1-2 business days.
 

Imagine Driving On These Roads...Some of the World's Most Beautiful (and Craziest) Roads and How International Car Shipping Can Get You There!

When you ship Corvette's, Mustangs, Jaguar's and Bentley's overseas from the US on a regular basis, you start to wonder where these cars end up...what roads will they see in their new overseas home.  Just to "tickle our fancy" we decided to come up with a list of some of the world's most amazing roads, and imagine our overseas customers driving their cars on these roads....


1). Col de Turini, France

Located in the French Alps, the Col de Turini is one of the most spectacular passes in France. Infamous for its yearly Monte Carlo Rally, the road is a favorite for car driving enthusiasts.  We have shipped plenty of classic Ford Mustangs to France, and we can see these car owners braving the tight turns of the Col de Turini.  If you are interested in experiencing the Col de Turini, we can ship a car from the USA to the ports of Le Havre or Marseille.

The Col de Turini is a spectacular mountain pass in the French Alps, imagine driving your Ford Mustang or Chevy Corvette on this road!

2). Atlantic Ocean Road, Norway

Our next spectacular road lands us in Scandinavia, in what could be the classic car collecting capital of the world - Norway.  The Atlantic Ocean Road runs across a archipelago in the Norwegian Sea.  Imagine driving a classic Oldsmobile on this beautiful span of road in Norway.  Overseas car shipping to Norway from the USA is available to the port of Drammen, Kristiansand and Oslo.

Ship a car to Norway from the USA and take a drive over the bridges and islands on the Atlantic Ocean Road.

3). Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road, United Arab Emirates

The UAE is known for its flashy cars and desert climate, and it should come as no surprise that one of its most well-known roads combines the two.  The Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road rises through the mountain of Jebel Hafeet, a city located in the emirate of Abu Dhabi.  The road is considered one of the best driving roads in the world and is the perfect place to drive a shiny new Range Rover, Toyota Land Cruiser or BMW shipped to the port of Jebel Ali from the United States. 

Rising above the mountains of Jebel Hafeet, this road is the perfect place to get a worldly view of the UAE.  Ship a car to the port of Jebel Ali and head straight to this mountain!

4). North Yungas Road, Bolivia

If you make it through this next road alive, you are among one of the few.  Known as the "Road of Death" the North Yungas Road connects the Amazon region of Bolivia with its capital city La Paz.  What makes this road so dangerous is a combination of the following: no rail guards, tropical climate, narrow width, steep hilltops and muddy roads.  Each year thousands of thrill seekers venture to the 40 mile stretch of road and brave the twist, turns and sudden drops. Although you have a 50/50 chance of making it out alive, it is still one of the most spectacular and beautiful roads in the world.  We hope any cars we shipped to Bolivia from the US haven't met their demise on this road.

The Yungas Road in Bolivia offers a breathtaking view of the scenery of the Bolivia mountainside, and it is also considered the deadliest road in the world.

5). Stelvio Pass, Italy

We head back to the Alps for the next spectacular road overseas, but this time we visit the country of Italy.  The road is the the highest paved mountain pass in the eastern Alps and was crowned one of the greatest driving roads in the world.  We can ship cars to several Italian ports including the ports of Genoa, Civitavecchia, Livorno, Salerno, Trieste, Venezia and Palermo from the USA at some of the best car shipping rates available on the market.

The road may look windy, but the scenery is beautiful on the Stelvio Pass in Italy

6). Irohazaka Slope, Japan

We take our adventure in seeking some of the world's most beautiful roads to the mountains of the Far East.  The Irohazaka road in Japan originally had 48 hair rising turns and each turn corresponds with a letter in the Japanese alphabet.  The road is located in the mountains of the Tochigi prefecture.  If you're brave enough to drive this winding road, there is plenty of international car shipping service from the USA to the port of Yokohama, Japan.

The twists and turns on the Irohazaka might make you dizzy, but the experience of driving on one of the world's most beautiful roads is well worth it.

7). Dades Gorge Road, Morocco

The Dades Gorge Road is located in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco.  The Atlas Mountains stretch over three countries in North Africa: Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia.  The Dades Gorge is located on the Dades River and is a popular tourist destination due to its vast natural beauty. It also makes for one incredible driving experience!  We offer some of the most affordable international car shipping to the port of Casablanca, Morocco from the east coast of the United States.

Experience the mountains of Morocco on the Dades Gorge Road.

Avoid Customs Delays When Shipping Your Car Overseas:New Customs Title Clearance Regulations for Customers Shipping New Cars

One thing we always try to do here at K International Transport is keep our customers in the loop when new regulations or changes occur in international shipping.  Recently we have experienced a change in the requirements for automobile title clearance at several ports.  In order to help you, our customer, avoid any issues with export title customs clearance, we wanted to provide you with details on the new regulations.  These new regulations for title clearance affect automobiles that are brand new or are 3 years old or younger.  For 2012 these regulations affect all cars with the model years of 2010, 2011, 2012 and soon 2013.

When shipping your car from the US, the last thing you want to deal with is delays because of customs issues.  It is very important to make sure all documentation including the title, bill of sale and/or certificate of origin are submitted on time and with all the necessary information.

As one of the leading experts in the United States for international car shipping, we always know what's going on in the world of overseas car transport.  One of the most frustrating parts for many customers shipping a car overseas from the USA, is dealing with customs regulations.  We have already discussed how to ship a car that has a lien, and now there are some new requirements for brand new cars that have already been fully paid for.  Several ports including the port of Baltimore and the port of New York now require additional documentation when shipping brand new vehicles.  In addition to submitting the original title or manufacturer's certificate of origin (MCO) you must now submit the following additional documentation:

• All cars that are model year 2010 or younger will now require an original, notarized bill of sale issued from the seller, along with the original title and/or manufacturer's certificate of origin (MCO).
• The bill of sale must state that the vehicle is paid in full or indicate a zero balance.  Bills of sale not showing a zero balance or full payment will not be accepted.
• The bill of sale should indicate the form of payment received

Without following the above guidelines, customs will reject your title or certificate of origin and will not allow the car to ship.  Anytime your title is rejected your run the risk of missing your vessel.  Additionally, the local port will only store your car for a limited amount of days before they begin to charge you storage.  The last thing you want when shipping your car internationally from the US is to have any unnecessary charges and/or delays.

The last thing you want is for your car to miss its ship!  Make sure you use a reliable international shipping company who knows all the rules and regulations when it comes to shipping a car overseas from the US.

K International Transport is here to help you with all of your overseas car shipping needs!  As one of the best international car shipping companies in the United States, we provide some of the most reliable and affordable international shipping service.  For more information on our overseas car shipping services give us a call at 212-267-6400 or on Skype at kinternationalny.  You can also visit our website at www.kinternational.com or visit us on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/KInternationalTransport/.  To receive some of the best car shipping quotes send an email to sales@kinternational.com.  Make sure to indicate the type of car you are shipping, where you are shipping from, and where you are shipping to.  We respond to all request for international car shipping prices within 1 -2 business days. 

Simple Instructions for International Ro/Ro Car Shipping Service from the USA

Have you combed the internet looking for simple instructions on how to ship your car overseas?  Exhausted every question board, blog and article on international car shipping but still confused on how to ship your car from the United States?  Trust me, international car shipping from the US is a relatively simple procedure.  Instead of waxing poetic sentences on the ups and downs of international car shipping, we will break down the procedure into 7 simple steps.

7 Simple Steps to Ship Your Car Overseas From the United States

Step #1: Get a Car Shipping Quote 

Send an email or call the international shipping company to receive a free overseas car shipping quote

I already know you're an expert at Google searches, so if you came across a couple of good international car shipping companies here's what information you will need to provide to get a quote:
-Year, Make and Model of the car
-Origin (the car's location in the United States)
-Destination (desired country, city and/or port overseas)
-Whether you will need the overseas car shipping company to pick-up your car and deliver it to port or if you can deliver it yourself

To make it even simpler, you can click here to fill out a international automobile shipping rate request.

Step #2: Get Your Documentation and Information in Order Before you Ship your Car Overseas

Shipping your car from the USA doesn't require a mountain of paperwork....I promise

In order to ship your car from the United States you will only need the following documents and information:

-Original title to the vehicle.  If your car still has an active lien you must provide an original letter from your car financing company granting you permission to ship your vehicle.  If your lien was satisfied within 6 months of you shipping your car overseas, you will need a letter from the car financing company indicating the lien has been released and the date it was released.

-Export Power of Attorney - allows the company to ship your car on your behalf

-Details for the consignee (receiver) of the vehicle in the country overseas including a name, full address and telephone number.  You should also find an agent in the receiving country to help with import procedures.

-File for an EIN number in order for the freight forwarder to file a Shipper's Export Declaration (SED) on your behalf.  If you are a foreigner you can use your foreign passport # and will not need to file for an EIN.

Step #3: Pay to Ship your Car Overseas

There's no such thing as a free lunch in this industry, so make sure you pay your bill on time in order to avoid delays in releasing your vehicle

  

I know, I know, this seems like a simple step.  But so many customers do not pay for their shipping costs until the car reaches overseas, and the forwarder holds your car hostage until you pay.  Check with the international shipping company what their payment terms are.

Step #4: Prepare Your Car for International Ro/Ro Shipping

Make sure you car is clean and ready to go before you ship.  Make sure to remove any personal items including boxes, clothing, children, pets and other items from the car before you ship it overseas.

When using international roll-on / roll-off car shipping service be sure you prepare your car in the following ways:

-Car should be free of dirt and clean on the outside

-Car should be empty - you cannot ship personal items including suitcases, furniture, children and pets inside your car!

-Car should be running and have working brakes

-Car should have no more than 1/8 tank of fuel

If a car carrier is picking up your car and delivering it to port, your international car shipping company should give you a copy of the dock receipt.  The dock receipt will be needed for the carrier to enter and deliver your car to the port.

Step #5: Car Arrives at the Port and Title Clears Customs

You are one step closer to shipping overseas!

Once your car arrives at the port, it waits for the booked vessel to arrive and also for the title to clear customs.  If the title clears customs in time the car is loaded on the vessel, if there is an issue with customs clearance your car could be delayed.

Step #6: Car Ships Overseas

Your car clears customs, loads the vessel and ships overseas!

After weeks of planning and spending 5 minutes reading this blog, all your hard work has paid off and your car loads the vessel and ships overseas!  Now to only clear customs in the destination country....

Step # 7: Receive your International Shipping Documents for your Car

The overseas car transport company should send you any original shipping documents as soon as the car sails

In order to claim your car at the overseas port you will need a few documents from your international car shipping company:

1). Bill of Lading - a document issued by the steamship line needed to claim your cargo.  This document confirms your car was shipped and all details for the shipment.  The agent in the overseas country will need this document or else they cannot give you your car.

2). Original Car Title- if the car shipping company cleared your title for you they should send it with the bill of lading.  You might need the title in order to register your car in your new country.

So there you go...seven simple steps to ship your car overseas.  Not as difficult as you thought, right?  Just to recap, here are the seven steps:
  

• Step #1: Get a Car Shipping Quote 
• Step #2: Get Your Documentation and Information in Order Before you Ship your Car Overseas
• Step #3: Pay to Ship your Car Overseas
• Step #4: Prepare Your Car for International Ro/Ro Shipping
• Step #5: Car Arrives at the Port and Title Clears Customs
• Step #6: Car Ships Overseas
• Step # 7: Receive your International Shipping Documents for your Car

Overseas Vehicle Shipping to Nigeria

In past blogs we have highlighted international car shipping services to European countries and the Middle East, and we have also spoken about heavy equipment transport to West Africa.  But did you know one of the largest importers of used vehicles from the United States is Nigeria? Shipping cars overseas to Nigeria is one of the most popular international shipping services we offer here at K International. With direct vehicle shipping service available from several Northeast USA ports, shipping to Nigeria is easier and faster than ever!

Overseas car shipping by roll-on / roll-off vessel is available to Lagos, Nigeria from the United States.  International car shipping ro/ro service to Nigeria is available from ports in New York, Baltimore, Jacksonville, and Galveston.  Container shipping services to Nigeria is available from all United States ports including New York, Boston, Baltimore, Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, Miami, Los Angeles and Houston.  

When shipping a car to Nigeria there are a number of issues you will need to pay close attention to:
  
1). Overseas car transport to Nigeria now requires the completion of special government   regulated import documentation prior to shipping from the United States.  The Nigerian Federal Executive Council require all importers to obtain a Cargo Tracking Note (CTN) for all shipments.  Recently several steamship lines have required shippers to obtain this note before their vehicle can be loaded on board the vessel in the United States.  When quoting car shipping quotes to Nigeria we try to remind all customers to secure this CTN prior to shipping.  We can assist you with obtaining the Cargo Tracking Note through the use of a third-party company that has been designated to administer the CTN.  Costs for the CTN depend on the size of the vehicle.    

2). Make sure you check all affiliated importing laws with Nigerian customs prior to exporting a used vehicle to Lagos, Nigeria.  Used passenger cars to Lagos, Nigeria can be no more than 10 years old.

3). Confirm whether you prefer to ship your vehicle to Nigeria via roll-on / roll-off service or by container service.  International car shipping by container is available to Tin Can Island, Nigeria.  For more information on available international shipping services at the port of Tin Can Island / Lagos, Nigeria visit our port information page here.   

4). Some roll-on / roll-off service to Nigeria is available on a first-come, first-serve basis, this means you might not get an exact sailing date at the time of your booking.  If you are looking for the most affordable way to transport your car to Nigeria this is it, but you must keep in mind your car might not ship from the USA port for up to a month after delivery to port.

The above just highlights some important factors you should take into consideration before shipping your car to Nigeria.  K International is one of the top international shipping companies to Nigeria and we offer competitive car shipping quotes and rates.  Submit a rate request today and we will get back to you within 1-2 business days.

If you are still questioning whether it is worth shipping your car overseas we offer the following useful international car transport tips:

• If you are relocating abroad for work with your current employer, check if your company will cover the costs of international shipping from the United States as well as customs clearance, handling and delivery on the import side
• How much are the total costs for international car shipping to the destination country and what is included in those costs?
• Always check before you reach the destination country what the road insurance rules and regulations are in the new country; oftentimes you must purchase insurance before the car arrives via overseas vehicle shipping
• Does your vehicle meet the local compliance regulations? Will you have to modify your car to meet the requirements? Customers who have shipped their car internationally can contact the local dealership in the new country and see if they are able to assist with bringing your car up to compliance. Charges can be as much as $200 -$500 or more depending on the scope of the work needed.
• What are the import regulations in the destination country for vehicles being used by temporary workers or permanent residents? Are duties, taxes and VAT due? Most countries will waive duties, taxes and VAT for people who are relocating or who intend to export their vehicle back to their home country within a set period of time.
