Car Shipping Burma

Burma (Myanmar) is a sovereign state that is located in Southeast Asia. It is bordered partially by the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea. Here is where five of Burma's ports are located.

The country is suffering and civil wars have been an issue ever since Burma claimed its independence and became Myanmar. Many that travel here come to study the culture or for employment to work with many of the country's natural resources, such as gems, oil, natural gas, and jade.

The roadways in Burma stretch clear across the country and it is possible to reach outside regions. While there are paved roads, many are unpaved but are simple to travel on. Make sure that the vehicle being imported can withstand the unpaved roads and that keeping up with the vehicle's maintenance is easy.

• Have the proof of vehicle's purchase and proof of insurance.

Methods of Shipping.

Container and RO/RO shipping are the two most common methods of shipping/exporting, especially to countries bordered by oceans and waterways. Burma has 5 total ports located along its coast.

While not all ports accept the RO/RO shipping method, it is always a cheaper option. RO/RO shipping requires the vehicle to drive onto and off of the ship without anything in the vehicle. The only exceptions include a car jack, a spare tire and floor mats.

Container shipping allows a person to ship other property as well. This property can be kept in the vehicle or even in the container. Containers can be shared with another individual which will help cut the cost.
