In countries where vehicles have right hand drive, i.e. the steering wheel located on the right side of the vehicle, it is forbidden to import a car with left hand drive except for a limit period and only under certain circumstances. This holds true for left hand drive vehicles being imported into countries such as the U.K., Australia, South Africa, and Japan, all of which have right hand drive vehicles. Some countries, such as India, have very strict laws regarding the importation of any kind of car. Any countries have high rates of duty to be paid of imported vehicles, and these and other taxes must be paid before the car is released from Customs. Countries such as the United States have very strict environmental and safety regulations, often making it not worthwhile to import a car from a country not possessing similar regulations.
All in all, its better to inquire about all the regulations in advance, and one of the ways to do this is to access an e-service website that can give you most, if not all the needed information, plus obtain price quotations from several companies. vehicles shipping abroad on long distances are usually secured or lashed and strapped inside a steel vehicle shipping container, with all of the gasoline removed beforehand. Often, both a car and a sizeable amount of household goods and other personal effects are sent in the same comtainer, often a 40ô standard or hi-cube container, that can contain a full sized car and a large amount of furniture and other household goods as well. Although not usually recommended, personal effects are often placed inside the car as well. Cars sent short distances are often send on a RORO vehicle shipping vessel, like a car ferry or ship specially designed so vehicle shipping and other cargo can be literally rolled off or onto the vessel. Again, be sure to obtain all relevant information beforehand and, as previously mentioned, a lot of this can be obtain by accessing onto Internet websites. Afterwards, its simply a matter of contacting the vehicle shipping company with the best offer, and completing the shipping deal. As the lowest offer is not necessarily the best offer (due to type of car, and services being rendered) obtain at least 4-5 offers before deciding on which company to go with.
