Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Libreville to Istanbul

Shipping costs from the USA to Turkey vary significantly, starting from around $20-$30 for small, light packages (1-2 lbs) with economy services and going up to $70-$90+ for heavier items or faster express delivery, depending on weight, dimensions, carrier (DHL, FedEx, USPS), and speed (days vs. weeks). Expect 2-5 days for express (around $30-$70+) and 1-3 weeks for standard/economy options.

You can bring a foreign-plated vehicle into Turkey under the “temporary import” (geçici ithalat) regime provided you were resident abroad for at least 185 days in the previous 365 days; if eligible the vehicle may remain in Turkey for up to 730 days (2 years) under the temporary import rules.

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.
