Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Lome to Panama City

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.

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.

Import Duty: Togo imposes a 53.5% duty on the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value of imported cars, significantly affecting the total import cost. Age Limit: Togo does not restrict the age of cars that can be imported, allowing more flexibility in shipping older vehicles.
