Typical Delivery Prices – How Much Does It Cost?

• Moldova is not an easy location to get to from the U.S., and the cost of transferring a car there usually runs between $2,600 and $6,100 in total transport costs.
• Part of the reason it is more expensive is that there is no direct shipment route available by boat, meaning the shipper has to arrange for standard auto delivery in addition to transport by boat.

Cost & Time Examples For Moving a Car

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and the type of vehicle.

*Save on ground transport costs by delivering the vehicle to the nearest port.

*Allow an additional 10 days to process the documents.

*Prices are for 1 car in a dedicated 20ft container. This is the safest and most reliable way to transport a vehicle internationally. Other items may be included in the container to help save you money when moving.

*Using the RoRo (roll on, roll off) method is less expensive, and shipments can be completed in fewer days. Contact us now for a free RoRo quote.

When exporting a vehicle to Moldova, certain requirements and specifications must be met in order for a successful transaction to occur. As is commonplace with shipments to any other country, there is paperwork to be filled out, documents to send in, and fees to be taken care of. For more information regarding the costs acquired by moving a car overseas, be sure to thoroughly read this article on the matter.

It is also important to consider the weather conditions of the country. Moldova possesses a climate that is best described as temperate and continental. The country has four distinct seasons, which are clearly defined. The winters are relatively mild and short, while the summers are long, hot, and quite humid. Since the warm and humid air from the Mediterranean often wafts into the country, it does experience abundant rainfall. Since the country does experience extremes in temperature, including freezing days of snowfall and humid summer days, it would be advisable to travel there during one of the more temperate seasons, such as spring or fall.

As always, it would be beneficial to gain knowledge regarding the country's weather patterns to understand any shipping delays that may occur. With the extreme cold and snow, it might be best to avoid transferring goods here during the winter.

It is easy to navigate through and have positive relations with such a storied and developed country as Moldova.

It’s customs and laws regarding moving and delivery into the country have strengthened and become more efficient in recent years. It is a country that is more advanced than neighboring countries such as Romania.

Necessary Steps To Take Before Transporting Your Car

In preparing to move a vehicle to Moldova, certain paperwork must be handled.

Required Documents To Deliver A Vehicle To the Countryside

1. Registration from country of origin.
2. Vehicle purchase invoice.
3. Title.
4. Passport.
5. Proof of ownership.
6. Residence permit.
7. Bill of lading.

Visit the Moldova Customs Page for more information regarding this matter. Be sure to reference this page to better understand any limitations and/or restrictions you may face upon moving or transporting goods such as automobiles to Moldova.

Keep in mind that banks on the land are closed on Saturdays and Sundays.

Any external or non-permanent parts of your automobile should be removed before shipment, as they may cause problems during a long delivery process. Many companies will also ask you to completely clean out the inside of the vehicle; this is especially true if you choose to use a RoRo transport service (more on that soon).

Also, to avoid having your car quarantined before shipping, be careful to steam-clean the interior before you leave. Because your chosen transferring firm won't have to transport your vehicle to a quarantine facility, then a cleaning facility, and finally back to the delivery facility, the delivery procedure will be sped up. You may speed up the delivery process and reduce the likelihood that your vehicle will be damaged by skipping these unnecessary steps.

Be sure to remove all air-conditioning gases from your vehicle as well.

If you are unsure about the eligibility of your vehicle’s moving status, refer to Title 19 of the U.S. Code Of Federal Regulations.

Automobile Transportation Methods To the Country

• Roll On/Roll Off (Ro-Ro) Shipping: This is the most common method of transportation that most customers choose to transport their vehicles. This is a sea-moving method where vehicles are driven on and off carrier transfer using their own wheels. Ro-Ro sea vessels are equipped with ramps that aid in the process of driving vehicles on and off the ship. Essentially, it is a shipping method that is best for any item with wheels or can be safely placed on and off wheels. It is the most convenient and cost-effective way of getting your vehicle to Moldova.
• Container Car Freight: This is a popular dispatching method choice for those who want to send some of their personal items along with their cars to Moldova. The vehicle is either collected at one’s home or is delivered to a depot. Depending on whichever price point is more desirable, customers can choose private containers, which usually run 20ft or 40ft in size, and use the leftover space to pack personal items in, or customers may choose to share containers with someone else’s vehicle. This is a slightly more expensive method, as more safety checkpoints and procedures must be met.
• Car Transportation: This is a land-based and land-locked shipping method, so it generally takes the greatest amount of time. Cars are insured and routinely inspected throughout the trip, but they must wait for a pending delivery date to Moldova before they begin their journey.

Remember that the vehicle must somehow be transported to a U.S. shipping port before it can begin preparations for shipment to another country like Moldova. In certain cases, you may be allowed to drive your vehicle to a local port; this will help you cut back on any further expenses.

Upon Arrival

Once you arrive at your final destination, there are certain procedures that need to be taken care of regarding the safe arrival of your vehicle into the country.

• Pay the appropriate customs duty and all taxes and fees associated with the shipment.
• Have modifications applied and tested if necessary.
• Apply for identification plate registration and approval with the Bangladeshi government.

Once you arrive, acquiring more information regarding driving rules and regulations in Moldova will certainly be in your favor.

• Driving in Moldova: You’ll want to know Moldova's traffic and driving rules as quickly as possible. The roads, signs, and highways here are modern and well-maintained, at least in the major cities. It has been reported that once one travels outside the major cities, the roads become poorly lit and need repair.
