When making arrangements to export one needs to take into consideration all compliances concerning moving internationally. You will have documents that will be required and paperwork that will need to be filled out, as well as fees that will have to be paid.
You should pay particular attention to the weather patterns in Suriname. It has rain during most months of the year, with May through July being the wettest months, and roadways can wash out easily and make travel very difficult for drivers. It is also a very hot climate which means you will need to ensure it is checked often for fluids leaking or hoses busting due to the temperatures.
