Shipping Information
Importing a vehicle will require you to adhere to a host of different regulations. The minimum that youβd have to pay is 17% duty and 24% VAT. The exact amount will be based on the evaluated value of the vehicle. Therefore, the more expensive your vehicle is, the more taxes you are expected to pay.
Shipping Methods
There are two overly used shipping methods when it comes to shipping a vehicle from the USA to Romania. The Roll On/ Roll Off shipping method is by far the most affordable means of shipping your car. You cannot have any types of personal belongings inside the vehicle during the transportation. Once the car gets rolled onto the ship it is going to be parked on the deck and secured for the transportation. You need to make sure that youβve removed all sorts of personal belongings and leave nothing inside but the spare tire, car jack, floor mats, a spare set of keys and ΒΌ of gas tank.
Container shipping, on the other hand, is more convenient but more expensive as well. With this in mind, you will be capable of using a private container for your vehicle and you can transport all sorts of personal belongings with it. This is something to consider. You will be capable of choosing between a 20ft and 40ft container based on the vehicle.
For any current information and the regulations on the shipping process you should contact the Romanian Consulate in USA.
