Though it is an asset to have your own personal vehicle with you at all times, shipping a car from USA to Yerevan in Armenia can be cumbersome. The main reason is that the region is rugged and mountainous, due to its geographical location in the South Caucasus area.

A popular tourist destination in recent years, Yerevan is one of the world’s oldest cities and the capital of Armenia. It is located on the banks of the Hrazdan River and is the hub of industries, administrative and cultural center of the country. With the advent of rapid urbanization in the past few years, the transportation has improved considerably. There has been new construction and betterment of transportation since 2000, and retail stores and businesses have multiplied.

Requirements for Importing Vehicles into Yerevan

Communication is one of the most important aspects of completing the import formalities and as there is limited scope of English in Armenia, it is best to get a copy of the documents translated in Russian or Armenian. Although there has been a growing trend of English as a language of communication, most of the custom officials have limited knowledge. This is another reason to have an experience international shipping service in your corner to override such communication issues.

One of the reasons that shipping is difficult or takes more time is that Armenia is a landlocked country and the nearest port is in Georgia, Turkey, and Russia or in United Arab Emirates. Then it has to be driven down by road or transported by land to Yerevan. This can take a couple of weeks but you can be rest assured that A-1 Auto Transport service will deliver it safely.

Shipping documentation

There is plenty of documentation that will need to be submitted. At A-1 Auto Transport Company, we will ensure that the vehicle papers are documented and submitted as per format. Here are the necessary documents:

Bill of sale
Proof of ownership
Registration deed
Owner’s passport copy
Inspection certificate that certifies working condition and technical details
Visa for Armenia or residency permit

Additionally, the owner of the vehicle has to be in in the city when your shipment is expected.

Methods of auto shipping

As Yerevan is a landlocked city, the car will be shipped to one of the ports in the nearest country and then driven to Armenia or transported by land. The shipping options are of two types- Roll on/ Roll off (RORO) and the container method. The RORO method is the cheapest and your vehicle is rolled on the car deck ad secured till it is rolled off at the port of delivery. The other method is container shipping where you can enclose your car and other goods within a secured container. This is more expensive. However after it reaches the port, it will transported by road to Yerevan. Custom duties of nearly 30% and other taxes are paid before it is delivered. Check with the Embassy of Armenia in US before shipping the vehicles.

Satisfied Customers

“I contacted A1 Auto Transport in November of 2017 and scheduled for my car to be picked up on the 15th or sooner if possible. Joe called me on the 8th and said he could arrange for a truck to pick it up on 13th. According to his calculations, it should have arrived at its destination in Texas within 4-6 days. The company kept its word and my car was picked up on the 13th. The driver followed procedure and inspected it before loading it. I offered him a tip and he refused. To my surprise, he said he’d try to get the car to Texas in around 3 days, 4 maximum. On the morning of the 4th day, it had arrived. My son got a call from them a day early notifying us of the arrival date and estimated time. At 3 pm, we got it back without a scratch. I’ve heard lots of stories of “the dangers of auto shipping” and of numerous scams, but A1 Auto Transport proved to be different. There are still honest, capable, and professional companies out there. You just have to choose carefully.”

“I had to be in Alabama to help my father through some tough times, so I could only give A1 Auto Transport a 2-day notice. To my amazement, a truck arrived the same day I made the call. I wanted my car in 5 days max, and they got it there in 3. Honestly, I was skeptical about using a transport service, with so many negative reviews online. A1 Auto Transport had a surprising lack of bad publicity, and I can now see why. The car got to Alabama in perfect condition. It’s a great company for beginners who don’t much about the industry and need to be guided through everything. Everyone was also super kind which is something I rarely see these days.”

“The only thing I can say about A1 Auto Transport and Joe is they’re the only transport company you’ll ever need. They moved our vehicle to Virginia in February and the car got there on the exact day they promised. The driver notified us all throughout the transport. After a couple months, we had to go back to Rhode Island thanks to work. I found someone cheaper and figured I’d save a couple bucks. Big mistake. The driver was 10 hours late. He arrived at 2 am, woke up our kids, then yelled at us for complaining about it. I showed him the finger and he took off, leaving our cars stuck in the driveway. We had to catch a flight in 4 days. I called Joe. He was on vacation, and he still made it 1 day before our flight to pick up our cars. The driver was excellent, professional, and super friendly. Transportation went smoothly and we got our vehicles back 6 hours early. We met Joe once more when picking them up, and it was just perfect. As far as we’re concerned, they’re the perfect company.”

Perfect company

“The arrangements and schedules in A1 Auto Transport were synchronized. My Subaru Impreza was shipped out on time and came sooner than expected. I was able to track the status of the shipment while it was on its way to Massachusetts. Overall, I can say the price is worth it. The staff is experienced and knows how to treat its customers. And there were no problems with the transport at all. They kept my car safe.”

“I was having a hell of a time with a broker, so I started looking for alternatives. From the first moment Joe picked up the phone, I knew this was the company I needed. There was something about the tone of his voice, the way he explained everything that reassured me. After my husband’s dad passed away, his mother wanted to leave her vehicle to our son. It was a barely driven Pontiac, and at 18 years old, it was all our son needed. But how were we supposed to get it to him to Delaware? I searched online and spoke to a broker who promised he’d find a carrier within 2 days. 4 days later, I called back to learn he’d forgotten all about our arrangement. He asked for 2 more days, but I was over it. A friend from work wanted to help and found A1 Auto Transport online. We both went through the site, and we were sold. Joe was very attentive and the door to door service was awesome. 2 years later, our son wanted to move closer to home, so we once again called A1. The car didn’t fare too well to my son’s driving. It was in need of multiple repairs, and he was worried something might happen during transport. I explained to Joe the situation, and after getting all the details on the Pontiac’s condition, he agreed to help. Just in case, the driver inspected it carefully and was even more careful loading it onto the truck. I called a couple times to check its condition and the driver also sent me regular texts letting me know it was ok and how much he had to go until the destination. My son was technically the client, so I was happy he took the time to inform me as well. I give A1 Auto Transport my honest praise and thanks for their great service!”
