Shipping a car from Dubai to the USA generally costs $1,500 to $7,000+, depending heavily on the method (cheaper RORO vs. container ), port, vehicle size, and extra fees like customs, insurance, and destination charges, with RoRo being the most budget-friendly ($1,500-$3,500) and containers costing more ($3,000-$7,000+). Expect additional costs for duties (around 2.5% of car value) and complex US import regulations, potentially requiring the car to be 25+ years old or meeting specific US standards.

Vehicles registered outside the EU attract 20% import VAT and 10% import Duty, based on the purchase price of the car and any associated transport costs to bring it to the UK. The import VAT is calculated on your purchase invoice for the car, or a recent valuation if the invoice is more than 3 months old.
