Importing Personal Vehicles

Now, importing vehicles here might be tricky because of the specific geography of the country as it’s landlocked. To bring your car to Asuncion, a lot of shippers use the land shipping methods to handle vehicles as well as other cargo. Truck transportation from the closest Argentinean port is very common. Shipping a regular vehicle to Luque from the US is likely to cost you about $2,300 to $4,700. It’s absolutely important to understand that these are only the shipping costs and there might be additional fees and expenses.

We have an expert team of professionals who will help you with everything from the documents to abiding by all the regulations.

With this in mind, some of the documents that you need to prepare include:

• Bill of Lading
• Proof of ownership
• Original purchase invoice of the vehicle
• Custom clearance certification
• Driver’s license

Shipping Methods

Apart from selecting the right shipping method, you will need to ensure that the vehicle is cleaned completely. This will ensure that it is not quarantined. You are required to leave only 1/4th tank of fuel, spare tire and keys and car jack. This is specifically important if you are shipping with RORO.

In addition, A-1 Auto Transport service offers terminal to terminal service and door to door. We pick and drop your vehicle from your home to port. Apart from that you need to select from the sea-freight shipping methods, namely:

• Ro-Ro shipping is going to leave your vehicle exposed to the elements and to the overall weather conditions. This is something that you need to take into account when it comes to it. Furthermore, you won’t be able to ship anything but your vehicle and no personal belongings are actually allowed within it. This means that you need to take out everything and leave nothing but the car jack, floor mats, a spare set of keys and the spare tire.
• Container shipping, on the other hand, is far safer than Ro-Ro because your car is stored within a sealed container. You can fill it up with as many belongings as it can fit. It’s more expensive and slower than RORO.
