Documents and Expenses of the Process.
It is, indeed, much cheaper to ship to the island of Espiritu Santo than it is to any other island nation. As per the local laws and regulations, the tax is based on the value of your vehicle. With this in mind, 15% is the baseline for the duty it could go as high as 40% if your vehicle has an engine with a larger capacity than 3000cc. The VAT is set at 12%. The documents that you need to prepare include:
- Address and name of the car owner.
- Description of the vehicle.
- Original Invoice.
- Title Deed.
- Registration and Insurance.
It is highly advisable that you talk to us when preparing the documentation in order to ensure that you haven’t missed anything which might cause significant delays. You can connect with the Embassy of Vanuatu to know more about the process. It is important to be aware of the fact that only left hand-driven vehicles are allowed, but if you are importing a right hand drive vehicle, you will need special permission.
Shipping Methods.
You have two shipping options in front of you. The first one is the Roll-on/Roll-Off method. It works well but you wouldn’t be able to ship any personal belongings with you. You have to leave ¼ of a gas tank full and empty out the vehicle entirely and leave only the car jack, floor mats, and the spare tire. Container shipping is your other option and it’s more appropriate if you want to ship additional household items. You will have an entire 20 ft. or 40 ft. private container for that.
