Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Guayaquil to Toronto, Ontario

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.

Importing a car from the US to Canada costs several hundred to a few thousand dollars, covering RIV fees, federal/provincial taxes (GST/HST/PST), potential duties (6.1% or 25% depending on origin/trade status), and inspection/modification costs, plus shipping (~$500-$2,500). Expect fees for the Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) around $300 CAD, plus ~5% GST/HST, provincial sales tax, and potential $100 AC tax, green levy, or luxury tax, all adding significantly to the total.

You will need to provide a passport, resident visa, proof of paid tariffs, title and registration, license, and other pertinent forms to Customs for approval. Ecuador doesn't prefer any vehicle be allowed into the country with an engine size larger than 3000 cc.
