Of all the preparations you can make for shipping/exporting your vehicle to Belize, without a doubt the most important is to choose the right international vehicle transport company. Shipping methods do not vary greatly between shippers, and shipping time is really a function of which American city you are shipping from, for instance, Port Everglades. Shipping destination will pretty much always be Belize City, and the regulatory requirements are the same for everyone shipping into Belize.
However, there can be a fairly significant difference between transport companies themselves, and that’s why it’s so important that the right one is chosen. Ideally, it’s best to be associated with a very knowledgeable company, well-versed in customs regulations and all the other details of international vehicle shipping. It really makes a difference to have a vehicle shipped by a company recognized by the Port of Belize as an experienced, reliable shipper.
Your transport company will guide you through some important decisions, like how your car will be delivered to the port of departure. Some companies offer door-to-terminal service, meaning they will pick it up at your home and transport it to the U.S. port city. Then too, you’ll need to decide whether you want to ship your vehicle via the Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) method or in a container. Container shipping affords greater protection for the vehicle but is more expensive, and RORO simply means the vehicle will be driven on and off the ship under its own power

Other Requirements For Shipping A Car To Belize
- You will need your passport or driver license to establish your identity to authorities.
- The original title plus the bill of sale for the vehicle are required to demonstrate proof of ownership and to establish that there are no liens against the vehicle. If there are liens, the car would be considered ineligible for shipping, unless the lienholder provides you with written approval.

Shipping Costs and Times
Most United states ports of departure will have regular service to Belize presuming that Belize is one of the ports they serve. Your transport provider will be aware of this as well as the shipping schedule which is often once per week. Once the shipment has left its origin it will take between three and five days to reach its destination depending on where in the United States the shipment originated. It will take an additional three to five days to clear customs and unload the ship once it arrives in Belize.
The cost of this international shipping/exporting will depend on a few important factors, apart from the fee charged by your transport company. If the car is to be picked up by the transport company and moved to point of departure, it will be an extra fee. The method of shipment (RORO or container) also affects total cost, and so do the dimensions of your vehicle, because the space it takes up in shipping is accounted for.
Lastly, there are some miscellaneous expenses to be added in also, such as the purchase of insurance. If your car is fairly valuable, it would be wise to have it insured for the journey, even though any kind of mishap during shipping/importing is rare. There will also be import tariffs and taxes applied at Belize that will add to the overall cost.

When you call in to discuss your future transport, our representatives will go over your options after you provide them with a few details. Here are the transport methods we offer…
- Flat Rack Shipping
- Container Shipping
- Roll On/Roll Off (RoRo) Shipping

Each method of transport listed is carried out differently than the rest. Flat rack is an open air service that secures your cargo to a rack. LoLo shipping is strongly recommended to those with inoperable vehicles and crated equipment. RoRo shipping is the cheapest open air service we have and it requires that your vehicle or equipment is operable. Container shipping is our shipping service that provides the most security and therefore, it is the more expensive of the transport options we offer.
