Ship Car To Tallinn

Car Shipping Tallinn

The panoramic city of Tallinn is located close to the shores of the Gulf of Finland, about 80 km from Helsinki. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Estonia has slowly built up, with rapid progress in the last few years. Today, the city of Tallinn is counted among the top ten digital cities in the world, and UNESCO has listed the Old Town as a World Heritage Site. Additionally, the port of Tallinn is one of the busiest harbors for cruises and commercial harbors in the Baltic Sea.

With better employment opportunities, the country now attracts students and workers from all over the world. Thus, if you intend to move here temporarily or permanently, you might be looking forward to importing your car to Tallinn. Another reason for the import is that purchasing the vehicle locally is expensive. With strong trade relations between the U.S. and Estonia, importing is convenient, especially if you work with A1 Auto Transport Company. We help you get the vehicle to Tallinn without a hitch, as we have over 20 years of experience transporting vehicles worldwide. However, it is essential to remember that there are stringent requirements for importing any vehicle into the EU. With a port at Tallinn, importing vehicles to the city is faster and easier as it is best connected to various U.S ports.

Important documentation and regulations.

The U.S. Customs Department requires extensive paperwork to be submitted before the vehicle can be exported. Some of these important documents include:

• Purchase invoice.
• Bill of Lading.
• Documents proving ownership of the vehicle.
• Insurance and emission control certificates.
• Clear title deed of the vehicle.
• Driving license and passport of the owner.

Additionally, the Estonian government requires other certificates to import vehicles from non-EU countries. With stringent import laws, some restrictions must be followed when you need your vehicle in Tallinn. The documents needed include:

• Fill out the customs declaration form available at the border offices of the Customs Department.
• Chassis and emission inspections are part of the pre-registration process.
• Modifications that are defined by EU standards.
• List of previous damage to the vehicle.

A host of duties and customs taxes apply, and it is important to register your car or vehicle within a week of getting the clearance from the customs department with the Estonian Road Administration.

If you are looking for affordable freight options, A1 Auto Transport service can assist. We offer a variety of freight shipping, including:

• RORO: The vehicle is driven onto an ocean-bound freight ship and driven off at the port of Tallinn. This is a cost-effective method, but you will need to remove the air conditioning, gas, and personal items and only leave the floor mats, spare keys, and tire in the vehicle.
• Container shipping is the more expensive method. You will need to pay for a 20-foot or 40-foot container in which you can put your car and other goods that need to be shipped. The benefit is that vintage and expensive cars/vehicles are protected from weather changes.
