International auto transport is much different than continental auto transport because of much longer distances. Typically, this is done by boat, but you can also ship a vehicle internationally by airplane.
If you plan on transporting your vehicle by boat, you have two shipping solutions to choose from.
The roll on/roll off method is the least expensive and most common way to ship a vehicle overseas. You will need to prepare your car for this type of shipping. This type of shipping also requires that all personal possessions be removed from the vehicle.
Another form of auto transport to Oman is container shipping. This method provides the most security against theft and protection against weather. Anyone with a very valuable vehicle or classic car should consider this shipping option.
