Ship Car To Jeddah

Car Shipping Jeddah

Jeddah is a very popular resort city in Saudi Arabia, also known for having the largest major sea port on the Red Sea. It is the largest commercial center and Expat area in all of Saudi Arabia. You must hire an experienced company to dispatch your automobile internationally from the United States to Saudi Arabia. If you are already in Jeddah and cannot move your automobile from its current location in the U.S. to the port on the scheduled date, the company will also need to handle pick-up and delivery. To authorize the company to move your automobile, you must sign a Power of Attorney Statement, granting them the legal right to do so without your physical presence. The company will also require a copy of your license and social security card for identification. The agent will discuss all necessary paperwork for overseas transferring and international regulations that must be adhered to for legal shipment. As you plan to ship, you must apply for a Certificate of Conformity to present to customs upon arrival in Saudi Arabia. Automobiles must meet the standards set by the Saudi Arabian Government to be driven in Jeddah. Your agent will discuss this with you, and modifications may be required to ensure clearance at customs.

How to Deliver to the City Limits

Shipping an automobile internationally to Jeddah can be conveniently accomplished by using sea routes, given that it has the largest seaport in the Red Sea. If you only need to dispatch an automobile without any personal material, Roll-On Roll-Off Shipping (Ro-Ro) is the preferred method for international transport from the United States to Jeddah and other global areas. However, if you have personal items or a high-value automobile that requires additional protection during the overseas journey, Container delivery is an alternative to Ro-Ro. Your automobile and personal belongings can be loaded together inside a large container and transported to here simultaneously. The delivery cost will vary depending on the chosen method, and your auto agent will discuss these details as you plan the move. The Federal Maritime Commission is a valuable resource for overseas export information.

Customs

Before finalizing arrangements for international transport, contact the Saudi Arabian Embassy to check for updated customs laws, motor regulations, and residency permits. A residency permit is required before importing an automobile here. The automobile must be within five years of the manufacture date at the time of import and cannot have been in an accident with physical damage. Additionally, you must apply for an import permit before the deliveryt from the Ministry of External Affairs.

Some of the paperwork includes:

• Title and Registration that clearly show your name.
• Sales Invoice.
• Passport .
• Insurance Certificate.
• Saudi Driver’s License.
• Residence Permit.

Your automobile must be registered at the local traffic police office when customs clearance is received. You will also be responsible for paying taxes and import duties upon entry at the port. Be prepared for customs to conduct a full physical inspection and an inspection of your paperwork. Your name must match on every document provided without any variation. Once customs has completed the inspection and given clearance, you can drive through the city on your own.
