Importing from the USA.

There are a lot of restrictive regulations that you’d have to abide by when importing in Uruguay. Only citizens of the country are allowed to import used vehicles and only under the condition that they have been living abroad for at least 3 years. The vehicle must have been registered in the name of the owner as well.

Even if you manage to meet the eligibility criteria you’d have to apply for an authorization with the Uruguay Finance Ministry. You will afterward have to clear customs. However, if your vehicle is new then importing it is rather easy and the restrictions are not that strict. You’d only have to pay the allocated duties and taxes upon arrival. You can contact the Embassy of Uruguay for further information.

Eligibility to ship to Paysandú.

Prior to arranging the shipment, you have to understand if your car is even eligible. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency allows lien free cars to be exported but if the lien holder has agreed expressly then you are good to go.

You have to prove the ownership with a sales bill. You have to have a valid license as well as cleared registration from the US. You make sure to get this clearance on time in order to avoid any unnecessary delays.

We offer door-to-door service and it’s a bit more expensive but it’s definitely worth it.

Shipping methods.

When it comes to shipping methods you can go with the traditional Ro/Ro service which would require you to drive your car on a shipping deck and leave it there to be secured on the deck of the freight ship. The car is then transported to the destination port, being completely exposed to the elements. You are not allowed to transport any other personal belongings with it.

Container shipping, on the other hand, would involve your car being safely placed within a secure and private container. You can also go and ship other belongings. If you feel like the price is too expensive you can always share it and split the cost in half. You can go with 20ft or 40ft container, based on the particular type of car that you have. The car is going to be entirely protected throughout the entire journey.
