Car Shipping Rotorua

Rotorua is located on the Southern shores of the Rotorua Lake on North Island in New Zealand. It is located in the Bay Of Plenty. It is the main seat of the area district which is also the heart of the island, located about thirty-seven miles from Tauranga.

The scenic and beautiful city, it is known for its natural springs, and picturesque locations and is a favored tourist destination. If you are moving here and intend to stay for a long period or even permanently, it helps to have your own car with you so that you have no requirement of depending upon local transportation.

You can transport your vehicle to New Zealand from the United States as long as you follow the rules and regulations. New Zealand Customs Authority has its own set of rules and regulations that must be met while in the United States. New Zealand Customs Service can assist you with all your information, questions, and proper paperwork to ensure that you will have no delays. It's best to hire A1 Auto Transport Service to assist you in every step of the import process.

Vehicle Dispatch For A Permanent Stay.

If you plan to move to the area temporarily or if you plan to return to New Zealand as a resident after living abroad, you will want to know the best way to transport your vehicle. Your vehicle will need to be allocated with the certificate by an approved certifier. This is a certificate that ensures the vehicle qualifies for the vehicle standards in New Zealand and meets the minimal requirement for the type and age of the vehicle. This inspection is based on a variety of aspects of the car such as your vehicle needs to qualify for the minimal frontal impact standardization and have a working odometer.

You as the importer will hold the responsibility for getting the vehicle certified before you can register the vehicle. You will need to contact the New Zealand Transport Agency to do that. New Zealand will not offer tariffs on hauled vehicles as long as they are for personal use. This reduces the cost that you will have to pay.

Tariff On Motorhomes.

This rule currently does not apply to motorhomes because the owners of a motorhome will pay 10% customs duty on it. The vehicles will be evaluated and if it is more than $1000 in value, you are required to pay about $30. If the biosecurity system is activated, they will pay another $17 as a tax. Additionally, there is a 15% GST (Goods and Service Tax) that has to be cleared. If you want to move here permanently, then you will need to include the following documents with your application:

• Valid NZ resident visa or permit.
• Returning residential visa.
• Australia passport/ New Zealand passport.
• Valid New Zealand permit or visa.
• Current New Zealand visa or permit.

Once your vehicle enters the Rotorua, the Ministry Of Primary Industries will then inspect the vehicle and clear it. You will have two shipping methods to choose from RORO and container moving. These two methods are the most secure and fastest way to haul. You will want to make sure that you have all the documentation ready when you begin the transport process. Paperwork includes:

• Passport of the owner.
• Registration and Title deed.
• Bill of Lading.
• Odometer Reading.
• Commercial invoice.
• Insurance certificate.

There is no applicable tariff to compare your vehicle with others. You will need to work with A1 Auto Transport Service in order to transfer your vehicle safely and to follow the rules and regulations set forth by the New Zealand Embassy.
