Vehicle Shipment to Cebu City from the United States
Cebu City is located on the Philippines' eastern shore of Cebu Island. About 80% of the country's domestic shipping companies are in the city, which also houses the main domestic shipping port. Cebu City is also the oldest city in the Philippines and is a wonderful place to reside.
If you are going to live in Cebu City or intend to be there for any extended time, have a vehicle shipped over so that you have your transportation. Shipping a car to the Philippines isn't as difficult as it might be in other countries.

The Shipping Methods Available
Transporting a car can be done in one of two ways. RO/RO conveyance is more popular than shipping containers. While air freight is an option, the high costs usually prevent anyone from using it. What, therefore, distinguishes RO/RO shipping from container shipping?
It's easy and inexpensive to ship with RO/RO. The vehicle can only carry floor mats, a jack, and a spare tire. Then, it is rolled onto and off of the ship.
Shipping vehicles in containers involves placing them inside massive shipping containers. The remainder of the container space can ferry items cleared by Philippines Customs.
Shipping Requirements
If you have decided to ship a vehicle, contact the Embassy of the Philippines. They will give you the most recent requirements, which are subject to change at any time.
- The vehicle must be under ten years of age.
- All duties must be paid, and a receipt will be needed.
- The vehicle must undergo clearance from the Philippine National Police and their Traffic Management Group.
- A person will need their title, vehicle registration, license, passport, proof of purchase, and insurance.
- A copy of the re-export bond will be necessary if applicable.
After everything has been addressed and your vehicle is on its way, make sure that you keep track of where it is during shipment. On the day of its due arrival, you must be present at the appropriate port for its pickup.
