Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Cape Town to Lome

Import Duty: Togo imposes a 53.5% duty on the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value of imported cars, significantly affecting the total import cost. Age Limit: Togo does not restrict the age of cars that can be imported, allowing more flexibility in shipping older vehicles.

Understanding Pricing and Quotes The cost for car transport can range from R4000 to R8000, depending on service type, distance, and vehicle size. Always ask for a detailed quote to understand any additional fees. Adding door-to-door pick up adds on average R700 - R1500 to your car transport 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.
