If you are importing the motorcycle on a temporary basis, then it is exempt from the import duty. Other than that there is 6% import duty and 21% VAT, apart from additional duties and fees. To get an estimate on the shipping costs and import duties, call in at our office or get in touch with the Embassy of Central African Republic.

We will ensure that the motorcycle is packed and carted before it is shipped. Although it is best to opt for shared container shipping as your motorcycle will reach more securely. If you have any issue in transporting your motorcycle to the nearest domestic port in the United States, we can pick it up from your doorstep and deliver it at the exit port, but that would be an additional charge. We offer the same services at Central African Republic customs entry so if you are unable to be there when the motorcycle arrives, we will collect it for you and complete the formalities. However, you will need to give us a signed Power of Attorney.
