Ship Car To Nakhon Ratchasima

Car Shipping Nakhon Ratchasima

Being one of the four major cities in Thailand, Nakhon Ratchasima is the current capital of the Nakhon Ratchasima Province. It’s also the main city in this particular metropolitan area. The truth is that without the required knowledge and documents, importing a vehicle into Thailand could be rather overwhelming.

This is why it’s advisable to contract a shipping company like A1 Auto Transport as they have over 20 years of experience. The first thing that you’d need to determine is whether you are importing the car permanently or on a temporary basis. If you are going to keep it in the country for less than 6 months, the temporary process might be more appropriate.

You can import cars with container shipping and RO/RO. The first one involves your car being safely stored within a private container and you’d also get the chance to ship additional belongings. The second option involves your vehicle to be driven on the shipping deck of carrier ship on its own wheels. This might be the faster way to go but the container shipment offers more safety and that’s why it’s also more expensive.
