Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Hamburg to Panama City

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

Shipping a car from Germany to the USA generally costs between $1,200 and $3,500+ for basic ocean freight, depending on the port and service (RoRo vs. Container), with total landed costs rising significantly to include customs, duties (around 2.5% of car value), taxes, and potential modifications (up to $5,000+), making the final price highly variable. Expect around $2,190-$3,150 for port-to-port from major German ports to various US ports.

Shipping your car into Panama is expensive. Actually shipping costs will be at least $2000. If you don't qualify for duty fee import, the fee assessed will be between 15% - 25% of the value of the car. In addition, everyone must pay a 7% goods and services fee.
