Ship Car To Georgetown

Car Shipping Georgetown

Georgetown is located in Region 4 and is the capital of Guyana. This area is also known to be the most significant urban center. It is on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean coast near the Demerara River and called the 'The Garden City of the Caribbean.'

Because it is a part of the Caribbean, Guyana is a popular tourist attraction, and people who come here enjoy staying for a while when possible. U.S. citizens have purchased property to have a place to stay when in the country. Extending your stay in Guyana may require that you bring over your vehicle from the U.S so you can have something to travel in while you are staying. Guyana has beautiful rainforests that people around the world come to observe and preserve the wildlife within it.

Price & Time Examples For Shifting

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and the type of vehicle.

*Save on ground transport costs by delivering the vehicle to the nearest port.

*Allow an additional 10 days to process the documents.

*Prices are for 1 car in a dedicated 20ft container. This is the safest and most reliable way to haul a vehicle internationally. Other items may be included in the container to help save you money when moving.

*Using the RoRo (roll on, roll off) method is less expensive, and loads can be completed in fewer days. Contact us now for a free RoRo quote.

Requirements For Dispatching A Vehicle

When you import your vehicle from the United States, Guyana has fewer restrictions than in other countries. You must have the correct forms and proper documentation to shift without any problems. All duties and taxes for moving to it must be paid before you can have possession of your ride. The rates are very high. You will have to modify your vehicle to meet requirements for driving in the area, for example, the steering wheel must be on the right-hand side of the car. The vehicle cannot be more than five years old. The duties are less expensive on cars. Small trucks cannot weigh more than three tons and are under four years old.

When calculating the cost of hauling a vehicle here, it helps to consider that the customs duties are 150% with an additional 16% VAT and the range of Excise taxes is 10-110%.

Documents You Will Need To Provide

Having all your paperwork done and ready to go before your ship date will be mandatory to avoid delays. Some of these include:

• Driver's license.
• Passport.
• Proof of ownership of the vehicle.
• The title of the car.
• Registration of the car.
• Customs entry document.
• Temporary insurance for Guyana.
• A copy of duty-free letter sent from the Secretary to the Treasury.

Delivery Methods To The Area

When shifting your vehicle to Guyana, there are two different methods that you can choose from. Roll On/ Roll Off is the most preferred method of moving because your car is rolled on the shift and rolled off the ship. The vehicle must be empty except for a spare tire, floor mats, and a jack.

Container shipping is another hauling method that you may want to choose. You will have two choices in the size of containers: 20 feet or 40 feet. Your vehicle will fit into the container, and then you can move other household items inside the container. This will be a little more expensive but it will get all your items to Guyana sooner rather than later. Any household items placed inside the container must be approved by Guyana Revenue Authority. You can share your container with someone else to keep your costs down. If you need your vehicle imported very quickly, you may want to consider air cargo for your vehicle. However, it should be pointed out that this is the most expensive way to ship.
