Shipping Requirements.
Shipping a car from within the US to Guyana is lenient. You would have to fill out a few specific forms and to pay certain taxes. The duties and the taxes are quite high so prepare to spend a lot of money. The shipping destination is the port of Georgetown and your vehicle has to have a right-hand drive. There are also some age restrictions – you can’t import a car older than 5 years. Small trucks of up to 3 tons can’t be more than 4 years old. The taxes are as it follows:
- 150% customs duties.
- 16% VAT.
- Excise tax between 10-110%
Required Documents.
You might want to contact the Guyana Customs as the documentation which is required is subjected to change at any given time. These are an important aspect of shipping the vehicle as it ensures complete validation at the time of shipping from U.S and after it reaches the Guyana port. These documents include:
- Title and Registration.
- Ownership Proof.
- Passport and License.
- A copy of duty free letter from the Secretary of the Treasury.
- Customs Entry.
- Temporary Insurance.
Shipping Methods.
The most convenient shipping methods which are proven to be efficient and effective are:
- RO/RO shipping is the cheapest and fastest water-based shipping method. However, you won’t be allowed to ship other particular belongings with your vehicle and the latter would be constantly exposed to the elements.
- Container Shipping allows you to choose from a 20ft and 40ft private container. You can fill it up with other belongings which are allowed in Guyana. You can also share the container with someone else to reduce the costs.
- Air Shipping is without a doubt the fastest and best way but it’s also incredibly expensive and the majority of people tend to avoid it.
