  4. A receipt of the vehicle's purchase or value at the time of purchase

Contact Solomon Islands Customs to make sure that all requirements are met. Otherwise, importing a vehicle will not be permitted onto the islands.

Methods of Shipment Available

Exporting a vehicle can be done in several ways. Choose between air shipping, container shipping, and RO/RO shipping. All of them are easily available, but air shipping is highly priced and almost impossible to afford.

Container shipping will allow a person to ship other belongings with the vehicle. The vehicle can be filled with property too. Containers can be shared with another person to help reduce the cost of shipping.

The RO/RO shipping method is also known as the roll on, roll off method. This requires the vehicle to be empty. The owner can have a car jack, a spare tire and floor mats in the vehicle.
