Ship Car To Jabalia

Car Shipping Jabalia

A city in Palestine, Jabalia is under the rule of the Hamas Administration as per the North Gaza governance. It is about 2.5 miles from the Gaza City and is a lively region. Considering the politically unstable situation in Gaza, it is essential to know that driving in West Bank is comparatively safe and thus, having your own vehicle can be an asset. However, it is best to have comprehensive vehicle insurance that covers your vehicle during the stay in Gaza Strip.

The first step is to call A1 Auto Transport service as they are experienced with shipping vehicles to Palestine which can be a tedious task when you are exporting from USA. Your vehicle will be shipped out to Port of Giza and then driven over to Jabalia. However, there is a list of documents that you need to submit before the vehicle can be transported overseas. These are:

• Original vehicle title.
• Driving license.
• S insurance.
• Social security card copies of the owner.
• Signed Power Of Attorney if you cannot be there to receive the vehicle.

Although there is free-trade agreement between US and Palestine, still there are import regulations to consider. Here is a quick look at it:

• Vehicles no older than 3 years can be imported.
• Have a valid license to import.
• Have original title deed.
• Get the approval from General Petroleum Corporation to get gas.
• Approval of Ministry of Transportation.
• Import license from the government administration.

There are taxes that are applicable which are calculated on the CIF or insurance, cost of the vehicle and freight fees. There is an additional 16% VAT on the car value. The cars that are imported are carted from the port using the specially licensed Israeli trucks which have yellow license plates. Some Palestine trucks are also used which have been approved and have a special transport permit.
