Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Louisville, Kentucky to Vilnius

How much does it cost to ship a car to Lithuania? The average price to ship a car to Lithuania ranges from $1150 to $2195. The duty to import a car in Lithuania from overseas is 10% duty + VAT 21% of the value of the vehicle, plus local charges in at the port in Lithuania.

The cost of shipping a car from the USA to Europe starts at around $900 per car in a shared container (consolidated container) to roughly $2,900 inside an exclusive 20ft container or around $4,200 inside an individual 40ft container.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but shipping can become comparable or even better for very long trips when factoring in hidden driving costs like hotels, food, tolls, and significant wear & tear/depreciation, especially if you value your time or have an unreliable car. The cost-benefit ratio shifts with distance, so compare actual quotes for shipping versus estimated expenses for gas, lodging, tolls, food, and lost time/value if driving yourself.
