You may never have heard the terms ‘door-to-port’ and ‘roll-on/roll-off’ before, but they are very important terms to understand if you’re thinking about shipping your vehicle from the U.S. to Angola.
A door-to-port service is something you may arrange with an international shipping firm to have done while exporting goods. Your car would be picked up from your house so to speak. The truck would then take the car to the U.S. departure terminal. If you do not want to pay for this extra convenience you can always take the car to the airport terminal yourself.
Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) refers to one of the two main shipping/exporting methods used to transport vehicles internationally, the other being containerized shipping. With RORO shipping, a vehicle is driven onto the ship and lashed securely to the deck for transport overseas. You are charged for space the vehicle occupies on deck, and this is generally much less than in a container.
When a vehicle is shipped via container, it will be hoisted onboard the ship via crane in a container that will be either 20-ft long or 40-ft long. This allows for a more sheltered passage through the ocean, so you will pay a little more for it.
If you are one of those people who worry a lot about your car, you may want to consider purchasing extra insurance to cover its passage. This will often amount to some percentage of the car’s total value, but it may be worth it to know that your vehicle is covered in the event of any unforeseen incidents.
If you are shipping/importing an especially expensive car, this is even more important and probably more worthwhile. While it is true that any kind of shipboard damage is rare during overseas shipping/importing, it is not unheard of.

What to expect about Regulations.
There will, of course, be rules and regulations which must be observed at both ends of the journey, since two different countries are involved.
- On the American side, you should be prepared with a bill of sale which clearly identifies you as the owner of the vehicle, as well as a title that is clear of all liens.
- If your vehicle still has a lien on it, you must have a notarized document from the lienholder affirming their approval to export the car from this country.
- U.S. Customs will require a driver license, registration, proof of insurance, and a fee for customs clearance, and the agency must be notified well in advance of your intended shipping date.
- There will be port handling charges at both departure port and destination port which can be accurately estimated by your international shipper.
Customs in Angola will likely be through one of the two main ports, Luanda or Lobito, and your international carrier will be familiar with what is necessary to clear Angolan Customs. For the precise rules and regulations, the Angola Embassy in the U.S. can be contacted, and they will provide whatever information is needed.
The U.S. is a huge trading partner with Angola, so the two countries have relatively amicable relations, but it is still best to have all details accounted for well in advance, so as to avoid any unnecessary hang-ups. This will only cause delays in reclaiming your vehicle while it sits in port.
Required Documents For Shipping A Vehicle To Angola.
- Passport & visa.
- Bill of lading.
- Freight invoice.
- Inventory value document.
- CNCS certificate.
- Pre-shipment inspection.

Heavy Equipment Shipping Methods through A1
We have four transport options available to those wishing to ship their heavy equipment and oversized cargo to Angola. Of course, which of these options are available to you will depend on the specifications of your cargo. Some of these shipping methods are less expensive than others and are only available to certain customers. Allow our professionals at A1 to help you make a decision with your shipping options. To give you some further insight, below is a list of the transport methods available.
- RoRo Shipping (Roll On/ Roll Off) - this method is the cheapest and easiest way to ship oversized cargo overseas. Not all sea ports accept this form of shipping but we will make sure we ship to the nearest sea port that allows RoRo deliveries and have ground transportation waiting for the remainder of the cargo’s travels. This method is an open air service that leaves your cargo exposed to the elements. Take advantage of our insurance plans to assure your cargo’s value is fully protected.
- LoLo Shipping (Lift On/Lift Off) - this method of transport includes the use of a crane to lift your cargo onto and off of the ship securely. This method is highly suggested to those with non-operable vehicles and crated cargo.
- Flat Rack - this shipping method secures your heavy cargo to a metal frame similar to that of a shipping container, minus the walls and ceiling. The frame is transported onto and off of the ship with your cargo secured to it.
- Container - only customer’s trying to ship heavy equipment that can fit into a 40ft shipping container is able to use this method of transport. This method provides the ultimate protection from outside elements and tends to cost a little more than the other available methods.
