Sea Container Shipping
The most popular way to transport a car is by cargo ship. The vehicle is delivered to the loading site on a special car carrier, after which experienced specialists carefully place and securely fix it in a special shipping container.
The container is then transported to the port where it is loaded onto a cargo ship. This type of transportation is the safest and most reliable. Delivery of cars from the USA to UAE often takes quite a long time, you can get more precise delivery time information from our manager.
Shipping Containers
Most often, after car selection, delivery from America is done in a special container, which come in various sizes as they are designed to transport completely different cargo. To ensure safe delivery, the right container must be selected. For expensive and retro cars, larger containers are used; for other cars, transporting several units in one container is more relevant.
The most important stage is quality fixation of the vehicle inside the container. Our company partners guarantee selection of the optimal container and all safety measures during transportation.

Cost of Car Delivery from USA to UAE
The cost of car delivery from USA is different in each specific case. The final delivery price depends on both the type of transportation and the location of the vehicle - the closer the car is to the port, the cheaper the delivery service will be.
What Does the Delivery Cost Depend on When Using Ro-Ro?
If the vehicle is delivered using Ro-Ro, the final cost depends on the type of vessel and the carrier company. There is no general pricing policy. Each carrier company has its own tariffs, which may be based on completely different principles. Some carriers calculate transportation costs based on the car brand and age, so prices can vary quite significantly.
What Else You Need to Know
Keep in mind that the initially quoted transportation cost may change in the end. This can happen for various reasons. For example, if the car is not equipped with all necessary documents, expenses may arise related to cargo downtime at the port until the missing papers are collected. You need to know the list of documents required for transporting a car from the USA: title, invoice, power of attorney for transportation and customs documentation.
Upon arrival at the final destination, the vehicle must also be equipped with all necessary documentation, including the vehicle passport. All these documents are necessary so that the new owner does not have problems with vehicle registration and its further operation.
