Cut Expenses With Your Vehicle.
If you plan to live in Montpellier, France, you may soon come to learn that hiring a taxi or rental vehicle when you need to go out can be quite an expense. If you are accustomed to having your ride to get around, you may want to consider shifting your vehicle if you are planning on staying a while. When you drive your vehicle, you can cut down on your conveyance costs while you are in France. To get your vehicle over to the area, you will need to find a moving company that is reputable and affordable. And that is why our services turn out to fit your budget.
After that, the next step is to ensure that your load is verified and for that, you have to supply some important paperwork. You will need:
- Owner’s driver’s license.
- Social security card.
- Power of Attorney Form filled out and signed (optional)
- Proof of car insurance.
- Bill of Lading.
- receipts of taxes paid in France.
- Shipping/freight invoices.
When dispatching your four-wheeler, it's important to verify what type of moving insurance they offer. If you are dispatching to France, you will need to have international shifting insurance and if the hauling company doesn't cover it, you will need to. You may also ask us as we are handling your transportation process to help you find some coverage before you transit.
One of the most common questions asked regarding international delivery is the customs requirements. Hauling requirements will differ in each country. French Customs and Excise Service is known for its leniency in customs requirements for U.S citizens. However, always count on providing proof such as your photo ID, a bill of sale, proof of where you live, the original title and registration for your four-wheeler, and a conformity certificate provided by the four-wheeler manufacturer. If your vehicle is less than four years, or six months old, you will need to follow French auto specifications before importing.
You may be asked to modify your vehicle before sending it; the moving agent will let you know before your estimated shipping date. Cars will need to have the steering wheel on the correct side, the left side of the vehicle. Once your ride has passed inspection from customs, it will be ready for you to pick up. You will be given up to four months to get your vehicle registered and licensed to drive in France. If you fail to get it registered, your ride will then be impounded and held until you obtain the registration paperwork and show proof. You will then need to pay any impound fines that have accumulated from holding your vehicle. You can contact the Embassy of France to know more.
Get The Paperwork Done And Shift Your Vehicle.
When considering how you will move your vehicle over to the area, you will have two choices. The first choice is called the Roll-on and Roll Off method. This method of hauling is the most commonly chosen. It requires that your vehicle is rolled onto the ship's deck where it will be placed in a bay. Then once it reaches the destination, it will be rolled off and given over to customs.
Container shipping is another option. With this method, you can place your items inside your container along with your vehicle. The container is then locked up and secured on the shift until it reaches the destination. Container dispatching costs more money but you only have to pay for the container fee and it will hold your vehicle and your possessions all in one trip.
