Car Shipping Ajman
Ajman is the smallest city in the United Arab Emirates and has been bursting with development over the last five years. Many companies have been moving into the area and with that business boom, an influx of people have relocated and will need to import to the city. The Port is located on the Gulf Coast of the UAE and is host to several harbors for cargo deliveries thus making moving a simple procedure once you hire a company to ship internationally. The agent at the company will be able to detail everything you need to know about international moving as they have professional experience. You will need to provide the company with your license, social security number, title and insurance and will need to sign a Power of Attorney form that will allow the company to haul overseas as well as pick up and deliver from your location to the Major Port in the United States where it will need to be moved from to travel. Your agent will take the stress out of having to move because they will be able to guide you through the paperwork needed for Customs Clearance and will be able to tell you what procedures you will need to adhere to for the United Arab Emirates importation laws.

What Requirements Should I Know About Upfront?
Anytime that you need to move internationally you will need to know what paperwork is necessary for the country or city you are shipping to and what is allowable for importing. In Ajman, you will be required to provide a copy of your Passport, Visa, Car Title, Original Bill of Purchase, Bill of Lading or Air Bill, and a Vehicle Clearance Certificate. You will also have to have it inspected by the Roads and Transportation Authority to ensure that your car is roadworthy. This inspection will need to be performed every 30 days once you are in Ajman with it as it is a requirement for all autos allowed on the roadways. For further information on customs regulations and requirements, you can contact the United Arab Emirates Embassy in Washington, DC and they can direct you to valuable paperwork and information.
Cost and Types Available
The total cost will vary depending on the type of moving you choose, the weight, pick-up, and delivery if necessary, and the distance from your exit to the entry port. The agent with the company will provide you with all of the pricing information and will present you with a total quote before hauling that will show what you need to pay upfront as well as what will be paid upon delivery. Typically International Shipping Insurance will be included in the total cost of moving overseas, but if it is not you will need to procure a policy through your current insurance provider. You can gain insightful information from the article “Exporting a Vehicle” from the U.S. Customs website.
With the availability of open seaports, the best way will be by sea, although you may also have an option to deliver by air if you need to. For moving overseas either by sea or air you can use the following methods:
- Ro-Ro- It is the quickest and least expensive way to deliver internationally. Vehicles are driven onto the ship and secured into place with straps and wooden blocks to prevent instability. When moving with Ro-Ro you will need to make sure all personal items have been removed from it. Your hauler will give you details on times and the length of time it will take for it to arrive.
- Container method- When you move in a container aboard a Freightliner you will be able to deliver personal items along with it. Containers can be utilized in either 20 feet (for single cars) or 40 feet (Usually for two vehicles) as well as enough space for your necessary personal possessions.
- Air Shipping- It is the fastest way to have it delivered internationally. It is the most expensive choice but is a great benefit if you need it in a short amount of time or if you have a luxury or classic auto that you want to be delivered fast. You can also have personal items moved with your vehicle when you choose to dispatch by air.
Your hauler will work with you to help determine the method that will be most beneficial for you and your automoible. You can also make arrangements with them to pick it up in the United States drive it to the exit port and pick it up when it reaches the dock if you will not be able to pick it up in person.
