Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Birmingham to Abu Dhabi

The cost to ship a car to the UAE from the USA ranges between $1,100 to $1,400 for container shipping to Jebel Ali port. Additional costs include vehicle collection fees, port handling charges, and a 5% import duty based on vehicle value. Our container consolidation service can save up to 50% on shipping costs.

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.

Shipping from the USA to the UAE can cost from under $10 for lightweight items (using economy services) to over $100 for heavier packages or express delivery, with major carriers like USPS, FedEx, UPS, and DHL offering options from days to weeks, depending on speed, weight, dimensions, and service level, with costs fluctuating based on promotions and carrier rates. Expect basic rates starting around $10-$30 for small parcels and up significantly for larger or faster shipments.
