Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Djibouti to Bangkok

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.

Permanent Import of Personal Vehicle All categories of new vehicles that aren't yet registered overseas can be imported without an import permit issued by the Ministry of Commerce. If the vehicle is weighing less than 3500 Kgs, an import permit from the Industrial Standard Institute is required.

Shipping from the USA to Thailand costs vary widely, from around $10-$20 for small, light packages (1lb) via budget/economy services (like Aramex, USPS First Class) with longer transit (8-16 days) to $40-$70+ for faster options (FedEx, UPS, USPS Express) with 2-6 day delivery, and even more for large or heavy items, with major factors being carrier, speed, weight, size, and service level (express vs. economy).
