Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from India to Texas

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.

The following fees: Registration fee (base fee of $50.75 for passenger vehicles and light trucks), Title application fee of $28 or $33, depending on the county, State portion of the vehicle inspection fee (up to $30.75)

Shipping a car from the USA to India generally costs $2,000 to $5,000 USD for sea freight, plus potential ground transport fees and significant Indian import duties (up to 100% or 125% for used cars). Costs vary by vehicle size, departure/arrival ports, and shipping method (container vs. RORO), taking 4-8 weeks, with air freight being much more expensive. Remember to factor in India's hefty import taxes and customs clearance.
