The first thing you will need to do is provide the company with a bit of personal information pertaining to the make, model and year of your car as well as information as to the need for pick-up and delivery in the United States or delivery once the car reaches Islamabad. The company will also need you to give them a copy of some of the following paperwork when processing your car transport overseas:

Once they have your proof of identity for you as well as your car, they will be able to proceed with making your shipping arrangements.

Customs will need to have some mandatory paperwork provided and accessible at the time of the customs check as well. Some of the paperwork that will be necessary for customs will be:

• Passport
• Car Title showing your name as the owner
• De-registration Certificate in order to register the car in Pakistan
• Auto Insurance that is valid in Pakistan
• The Original Bill of Sale or Commercial Invoice showing the make, model and engine number of the car. The invoice must also show the horsepower (size) of the engine

Arranging International Car Shipping

When you begin making the arrangements to have your car shipped internationally you will want to learn as much as possible about U.S. Customs export regulations as well as the import laws in Pakistan. The transport company will go over that information with you, but you may want to contact U.S. Customs for further information regarding trending regulations, personal items that are allowed for export and international laws pertaining to relocation to Islamabad. The company will provide you with details on the cost to ship a car overseas to Islamabad, the ways you can transport the car, and other details on what type of car is allowed to be imported to Pakistan per Pakistani law. There are a couple ways to ship a car to Islamabad from the United States. Those ways are:

Ro-Ro Shipping- This is the most practical and widely used form of international auto shipping from the United States to Pakistan and other countries around the globe. Cars must be empty and have no personal items remaining on the interior of the car when shipping with Ro-Ro because the car will be parked openly on a cargo ship for the International voyage. Ro-Ro is the quickest way to have your car delivered to you when you need it in Islamabad.

If you will need to have home goods and other personal content shipped at the same time your car is shipped, or if you own a luxury car and want to ensure that it is protected from the atmospheric elements during transport, you may opt for the following type of shipping:

Container Shipping- Your car and any personal items you may need to ship will be loaded into a large shipping container, usually either a 20 foot or a 40-foot container, and then loaded onto a cargo ship for transport. Using container shipping can take a little longer than with Ro-Ro due to the customs checks for personal items as well as having to unload the container, but it is expressly beneficial when you need to completely relocate to Islamabad and need to move everything all at one time.

Prior to shipping your car, the auto transport company will provide you with all of the necessary information on all types of shipping available, the best way to ship the style of car you have, and the total cost of shipping internationally to Islamabad.
