documents are:

• Bill of sale.
• a clear title deed.
• A lien release from the lender, if you have a lien on the vehicle.
• pay import duties and fees.

Procedures are different internationally so be sure you are aware of any differences between the two ports. You can contact the Angola Embassy in the U.S for further information. You are only allowed to import vehicles that have completed 3 years from manufacture and if you are here on a temporary stay, you can have your vehicle imported on a 2 year permit and need to pay on a bond that is about 40% to 45% of the CIF value. But vehicles that you have imported permanently have to pay VAT of 10% and import duty of 45%.

Shipping methods

You will need to determine what type of shipping method works for you. There is the Roll On/ Roll Off method and the container shipping method. When you choose the RORO method, you will need to completely clean out your vehicle and steam clean it too. You may also want to choose the container shipping if you are shipping a luxury vehicle or if you want to ship your personal items with your vehicle.
