Hi, so you want to ship your car to the USA? No biggie, Candor Shipping’s got your back. We know it’s very annoying trying to get your whip over there without burning’ all your cash. Let’s keep it simple.
Shipping your car to the USA? You’ve got choices: container, consolidation, air, or Ro-Ro. Depending on where you’re at, we can grab your car from places like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, Umm Al Quwain. We can come through to pick it up in the UAE, or if you want to save some cash, drop it at our Warehouse.
But here’s the thing with the USA: it’s huge, so where your car lands depends on where you want it. Big ports include New York, Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, and Baltimore. Your car will probably land at one of these, depending on where you need it.
1. You can drop off your car at our warehouse, or we can pick it up.
2. We’ll take it to our warehouse and load it in a container for the trip. We take pictures of everything, and will share it to you accordingly.
3. Your car heads to the port, then ships to the USA. You can track it online anytime.
4. When it gets to the USA, you can either pick it up at the port once the custom clearance process is completed (door to port) or we can drop it off at your place (door to door).
Major Ports in USA
• Port of New York and New Jersey: Ideal for shipments to the East Coast, especially for destinations in the Northeast.
• Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach: The go-to port for West Coast deliveries, particularly for destinations in California, Nevada, and Arizona.
• Port of Houston: Serves the South and Midwest, great for destinations like Texas, Oklahoma, and beyond.
• Port of Miami: Perfect for shipments heading to Florida or the South-eastern United States.
• Port of Baltimore: Another East Coast option, especially for destinations in the Mid-Atlantic or even the Midwest.
Got a fancy car or a classic ride? Containers are the move. We can pick it up from you in the UAE, or you can bring it to our place, we’ll strap your car down tight. If there’s space, you can throw in some other stuff too.
Dedicated Containers
More secure mode, your car gets its own container. You can pack some personal stuff with it too.
Shared Containers
Cheaper since your car shares the container with others. Still safe though. We’ll wait to load until the container’s full.
This is the cheapest way to get your car to the USA. Ro-Ro ships are built for cars, bikes, trucks—anything with wheels. Your car gets secured inside, safe from the weather. But your car got to be drive-ready, with just the basics, like a spare wheel. If you got other stuff, better use a container.
Air freight is for when you need your car there fast. If you’re trying to save money, fly it out and ship it back by sea. Air freight quick, safe, and worth it for high-end rides. For bikes, air freight might even be cheaper, especially if you plan to ride it around and then ship it back to the UAE. We can plan accordingly
Here’s what you’ll need for car export from UAE:
• Vehicle registration documents
• Export Certificate from the Roads and Transport Authority (If permanent export)
• Carnet de passage & Tourism certificate (If temporary export)
• Your identity documents such as passport, Visa or Business registration
And for the USA, You have to clear customs, and your car must meet the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. If your car’s non-compliant, you might need to tweak it, which can get pricey. You’ll also need to pay import duties (about 2.5% for cars, but some rides are exempt).
But no need to worry—Candor Shipping has got your back. We’ll take care of the entire process and paperwork, and when your car arrives in USA, we’ll make sure it’s ready to roll
