Car Shipping La Vega
La Vega is the third largest city of the Dominican Republic. Geographically it is situated in the heart of the country and is a center for trade in the country. If you are coming to La Vega to stay for a while due to work or school, you may want to consider bringing your own vehicle with you to enjoy driving around La Vega.
Many prolong importing their vehicles in fear of the high cost to transport and the condition and safety of their vehicles while in route. However, if you consider how much the cost of a taxi is as often as you need one and the price of a rental car, importing your own vehicle may not seem as bad as you thought. Hiring a company like A1 Auto Transport Service to oversee your vehicle importing from one country to another can help to bring it to you in the same condition as you left it.

Going through Customs.
In order to obtain your vehicle in San Cristobal, it must pass customs as it enters. There are lots of information found on the United States Customs page regarding the rules and regulations of exporting and importing vehicles as well as any travel advisories issued. You can also contact the Embassy of the Dominican Republic for any local laws too. In order to import your vehicle, you must follow the regulations which state that only one vehicle is allowed for personal use in La Vega. The engine size of that vehicle cannot be more than six cylinders and it cannot be labeled as a luxury vehicle. Once the vehicle arrives, it will need to go to customs checkpoint. You, the owner or the power of attorney, must be present at this time. All taxes and duties will need to be paid upon inspection. It's important that you don't delay the process by having the following paperwork available for customs:
- Your driver's license, valid.
- Sales invoice showing you purchased the vehicle.
- Car title.
- Car registration.
- Consular invoice that includes the Dominican Republic Consular Stamp.
You will need to have all the paperwork prepared and ready to show customs in order to speed the process up. If you are missing even one paper or if your signature doesn't match what is on your identification, your import may be denied and need to be exported back to the United States and wait the given amount of time before you can import again.
