Laws And Regulations On Vehicle Dispatching.
Before the vehicle can be registered in the area, the registration that was done in the USA will need to be canceled. Only then a new registration can be done as per Fiji laws. Some of the other considerations include that the cancellation certificate has to be in English, and once it has been imported and registered in Fiji, you cannot sell or transfer it to anyone for the next 5 years.
We can assist you with customs duties and other clearance procedures which have to be completed for quick delivery of the vehicle. It is best to get an appointment with the Fiji Revenue & Customs Authority to pay the duties and complete the formalities. These include:
- Clearances from the Fiji Biosecurity Authority.
- Customs clearances.
- Payment of import duties and taxes.
- S-registration of the vehicle was canceled.
Our shipping agents work with the Fijian authorities to ensure that your vehicle is cleared after the legal formalities are completed. For validating the import, plenty of documents have to be submitted which include:
- Proof of ownership- passport, driving license.
- Certificate of quarantine clearance.
- Insurance certificate.
- Title deed and registration.
- Bill of Lading.
- Freight and hauling invoices.
Before Registration Of The Vehicle In The Area.
After Fiji Customs clears the vehicle, it is essential to schedule an appointment with the Lands Transport Authority (LTA) for emission compliance and inspections. They will need the Certificate of De-registration and the Single Administration Document copy, apart from a copy of the Bill of Lading. The VAT and taxes are based on the CIF or the cost of insurance, vehicle value, and freight charges. You will need to talk with A1 Auto Transport to get the exact amount.
Options Of Freight Cargo.
It is cheapest to send the vehicle by Roll-on/Roll-Off but there cannot be any accompanying personal items. You are required to clean the interiors remove all air conditioning gas and leave just a little fuel, due to fire hazards. But if you choose enclosed container cargo then you are allowed to hire 20-foot or 40-foot containers which can fit all the household goods and the vehicle with ease. The container is sealed after it is packed.
