Taxation Regulations.

The truth is that it’s highly advisable for you to contact the Embassy of Nepal in order to get up-to-date information as regulations are capable of changing without notice. The actual tax which is payable is imposed based on the freight cost and the insurance of the vehicle. This is why there are quite a lot of variables; it’s usually above 140% of the CIF charges. Moreover, you have a 13% VAT that you have to pay prior to getting the clearance. Tax exemptions are granted to diplomats and dignitaries. If you want to get the tax rebates availed, you need to import for less than 6 months. The customs department requires complete documentation and that is why it is important that we work with you at every step to ensure everything is completed.

Shipping Methods.

There are quite a lot of shipping methods available to Nepal and you need to discuss the most suitable one with your shipping agency. You can go for air shipping but it’s particularly expensive. That’s why the majority of people go for RORO and for Container shipping. The Roll-on/Roll-Off is the overly preferred one as it’s cheaper and quicker but the container shipping has opted when you have to ship additional belongings which are a great advantage.

It is important to consider the prepping aspects before you ship your vehicle. You will need to disable the alarms, clean the interiors and ensure that no personal items are put within the vehicle. This is especially enforceable when you are using RORO method of transportation.
