Ship Car To Madrid

Car Shipping Madrid

Madrid is one of the most fascinating cities in Spain as well as the Capital of the country. With both a historical feel to the city as well as being very technologically advanced, Madrid offers the best of everything to all who visit or live in the city. When you want to import your car you will have to hire a professional international auto transport company. Your transport agent will need you to provide some upfront information such as your driver’s license, car title, social security number and automobile insurance certificate. For important information on International Shipping Regulations, you can contact the U.S. Customs. While Spain has far fewer regulations to worry about than many other countries, Madrid, Spain does have precise customs regulations that must be adhered to when shipping a car to the city. The most basic policy concerning the importation of vehicles to Madrid is that you must have owned the vehicle for at least six months prior to importation. Once your car is in Madrid, you will need to register it locally in order to obtain automobile insurance that is valid in Spain.
