Required Documents For Shipping A Vehicle To Cyprus
While there isn't much to be found in the documentation and requirements of vehicle shipment to Cyprus from the United States, one can assume that specific documentation will be needed such as a title, Certificate of Registration, proof of ownership, and a picture I.D. The following are the verifiable required documents:
- Proof of registration
- Sales invoice
- Passport
- Current insurance
Contact Cyprus Customs prior to the vehicle's importation for all rules in regards to the importation of a personal vehicle. They will be able to direct the vehicle's owner in taking the proper steps. Expect higher duties and taxes and be aware that there is long-term and short-term importation requirements which differ in regulations.
Methods of Shipment
There are various methods of shipping/exporting a vehicle into Cyprus. These include air shipping, RO/RO shipping, and container shipping. RO/RO and container shipping are the most commonly chosen.
RO/RO shipping will allow the transporting of a personal vehicle to cost less compared to the other methods. The vehicle must be empty with the exception of floor mats, a car jack, and a spare tire. The vehicle will be rolled onto the ship and off the ship.
Container shipping is a wonderful option for those needing to ship other belongings allowed by Cyprus Customs. The vehicle can be filled with property as well as the container's remaining space. A container comes in two different sizes and can be shared with another individual. This will help cut the costs of shipping.
Air shipping is typically too pricey and not many people can afford this method as it remains nearly impractical. However, it is an option.
