Shipping Cost from Brussels to Oakland, California

Here's a concise overview: Shipping Costs: Expect to spend between $1,875 and $3,590 for shipping, with variations depending on the car's size, shipping method (container or Roll-On Roll-Off [Ro-Ro]), and specific service option.

Yes, you can buy a car in Europe and bring it to the U.S., but it's a complex process requiring strict adherence to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) regulations, with the easiest path usually being for cars 25 years or older (classic cars) that bypass modern safety/emissions rules, or newer cars already made to U.S. specs; otherwise, significant modification and registered importer involvement are needed.

Shipping from Belgium to the US typically takes 3 days to over a month, depending heavily on the method: Air Express is 1-5 days (fastest), standard Air Freight is 2-9 days, while slower Ocean Freight can range from 2-4 weeks or more, with express services being pricier but quicker, and economy options offering lower costs with longer waits, plus customs delays can add time.
