Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Istanbul to Kingston

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.

Jamaica has specific age limits for imported vehicles, generally allowing new cars/motorcycles up to 5-6 years old, light commercial vehicles 6-10 years, and heavy-duty/buses varying from 12 to 30 years, depending on type and seating/weight, with regulations updated periodically by the Trade Board, so always check the latest policy for precise year cutoffs (e.g., a 2020 car might be eligible in late 2025).

An individual may import a combination of 2 motor vehicles every three (3) years, excepting 2 motor cars. Returning residents may import a car or vehicle up to ten (10) years old. Light commercial vehicles must no be older than 10 years. This includes pickup trucks, panel vans, window vans and minibuses.
