There are two ways to ship a car. In a container, the car is secured inside a 20ft or 40ft box, on its own or sharing with your household goods, the best protection and the usual choice for a valued car. By roll-on roll-off, the car is driven onto a vehicle ship and driven off at the other end, often cheaper for a standard runaround. The islands drive on the left, the same as the UK, so a right-hand-drive car suits the roads.
Your vetted partner advises which suits your car and budget, and handles the booking, shipping and clearance.
A car clears on its own paperwork. You'll need the logbook or title proving ownership, a purchase invoice or proof of value, and the bill of lading for the voyage. A broker files the customs declaration in ASYCUDA World. A car is dutiable, with the rate depending on engine size and value, plus VAT at 12.5% on the landed value. Returning nationals get a one-time vehicle concession, with the duty waiver rising the longer they've owned the car, plus relief from VAT and motor vehicle tax on a qualifying private car.
Ship the car in a container, alone or with your home.
Bring one vehicle in under the concession.
Every town, island and service.
Your car clears at the Port of Port of Spain. A broker files the entry in ASYCUDA World, and any duty, VAT at 12.5% and motor vehicle tax are worked out on the landed value, unless it comes in under the returning-national concession. Once cleared, you collect it or your partner arranges delivery, with an inter-island leg for Tobago. Your partner tells you what's due before the car ships, so there are no surprises at the port.
Moving home often means moving money too. The local currency is the Trinidad and Tobago dollar. For years we've connected customers with trusted partners who handle any currency, so the money side is simple and fair. It's offered through our partners, with no hidden fees.
Shipping a car needs the right method and clean paperwork. We connect you with one partner who handles both, working hand in hand with established overseas removal companies and international movers, and a broker clears your car at the Port of Port of Spain.
