Things to consider before shipping is finding a knowledgeable customs broker at the destination of where the vehicle is being shipped and make sure there are no restrictions of the vehicle entering the country. For example, countries may ban vehicles older than a certain year due to environmental concerns. Also, consider the other costs besides the freight, like the duties and taxes. You may be charged a higher amount due to the make, model, year, etc. You may qualify for a concession on duties if you are returning resident or the vehicle is to be used for business purposes. These are all questions your broker should be able to answer.
