If an extended trip or even permanent residence in Ethiopia is in the near future, have a personal vehicle shipped there for personal use. It will give a person the freedom to travel whenever necessary without being burdened with the Horn of Africa's public transportation, language barriers, and currency issues.

Having a personal vehicle transported from the United States to Ethiopia isn't as difficult as it may seem. While exporting to Southern Africa is more difficult due to its strict regulations, shipping a vehicle to the Horn of Africa isn't nearly as difficult. The regulations for vehicle shipping differ throughout the continent.

About Ethiopia and Local Travel

Being the most inhabited landlocked country in all of the worlds, Ethiopia has many roadways. Not all of the roads are in the greatest of shape, but over the past few years, local travel has become much easier with the funding raised for road construction.

Ethiopia's topography includes Highlands, mountainous regions, valleys, and plains. There are many different things to see, especially the wildlife and culture of the country. Whether a person is there for study, employment or to reside, having a personal automobile will be very helpful with local travel.

What Is Needed:

Best Car Shipping Company Ethiopia
  1. Proof of Ownership
  2. Title and Registration
  3. License and Passport
  4. Receipt from Importation
  5. Driver's license
  6. Insurance certificate
  7. OBL with VIN #
  8. Import permit

  10. Letter of support

There will also be some requirements that will need to be followed and nearly 5 different taxes that will need to be paid to Ethiopian Customs. The owner of the vehicle must be present at the Port of Djibouti on the day that the vehicle is due for arrival.

Process of registering a vehicle in Ethiopia.

Ways to Ship a Vehicle

There are different options to select from when a vehicle is to be shipped. There is the container method which comes in several sizes, and there is the RO/RO method of shipping, also referred to as the roll on, roll off method.

When other possessions are to be shipped with the vehicle, then container shipping is the method that should be chosen. The vehicle can be filled with belongings, as well as the container. The container can even be shared with another individual to help cut costs.

An alternative method would be RO/RO shipping. The RO/RO shipping method requires that the vehicle is empty. The vehicle must also be capable of rolling on and rolling off of the ship.

Each bring a unique specification to the table as you decide what will work best for you.

Shipping Options Explained

  • Container shipping is a traditional mode of transport. Enclosed and secure with fixed pricing (excluding weight), it’s a great avenue to go given your cargo would fit into the sizes available.
  • LoLo shipping is when your object needs picked up and set onto a ship that can also be referred to as a self geared vessel. A bit more expensive than container shipping since the crane, operator and placement add extra detail and precision to the job. This type of shipping works very well with inoperable vehicles and large items that need placed on the top of a cargo vessel.
  • RoRo is one of the simplest and most cost effective way of getting your cargo overseas. Works only if your vehicle is operable and/or can be wheeled on and off the Flat Rack Shipping is used for uniquely large items that would not fit into a container such as machinery and material stacks. Shaped like a shipping container sans walls and a ceiling, it provides an alternative transporting option.

There are a lot of options for auto transport these days, which surprisingly makes it harder to find a good company. I received more than 10 offers to ship my car, but I couldn’t decide on any of them... Fortunately, I made the right choice with A1 Auto Transport.
