Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Kiev to Dubai

Shipping costs for a car from the USA to Ukraine start at approximately $1,100 when using consolidated container shipping. Pricing varies based on the port of origin, vehicle type, and shipping method. Additional costs may include customs clearance, VAT, and import duties in Ukraine.

The average car import fee in the UAE is AED 4,700 while a container inspection is also carried out at an additional cost of AED 700 by the RTA officials. The customs officials give clearance along with a blue export plate that the owner needs to stick to the vehicle immediately.

The cheapest way to ship a car is by using open transport (multi-car trailer) and booking in advance, especially during off-peak seasons (late fall/winter). Terminal-to-terminal shipping is cheaper than door-to-door, and being flexible with pickup/delivery times (e.g., near major cities, during weekdays) lowers costs. Comparing quotes from multiple reputable brokers and carriers is essential to find the best rates, as is reducing your car's weight (e.g., fuel level).
