• Bill of lading.
• Ownership proof.
• Insurance Policy.
• Clear title.
• Driving license and passport of the owner.

Furthermore, the Estonia Tax and Customs Board would require other certificates as the import laws are rather stringent. Some of the documents include:

• Chassis and emission inspections.
• Modifications that are defined by the standards of the EU.
• List of damage if there was some.

There is a also an array of custom duties and taxes that you’d have to take care of within a week with the Estonian Road Administration once you get the clearance from the Customs Department.

Preparing the Car.

Once you’ve decided to get your car delivered to Estonia it is better if you duly prepare it for the process in order to ensure a hassle-free process. The steps include:

• Clean the vehicle inside and out in order to avoid quarantine.
• Remove all of your belongings.
• Get valid insurance.
• Inspect the car for damage and obtain a signed copy of the record that outlines them.

Typically, you can choose between two shipping methods with the A1 Auto Transport service. They include:

• RORO: The vehicle is going to be driven onto the freight ship and driven off to Estonia. This is a fast and cost effective way but you won’t have the luxury of shipping additional belongings. You can leave only the floor mats, spare keys and tire and your car jack.
• Container Shipping: This is more convenient if you want to get other items shipped with the car. You can choose between a 20ft and 40ft private container and you could also share it with another person to split the costs.
