Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Mexico City to Dubai

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.

Taxes and Duties There are no duty exemptions available when shipping a car to Dubai. This means that, in addition to the cost of shipping (see below,) you may also have to pay: An import duty of 5% (value of the vehicle + 1% insurance +shipping costs) A value-added tax (VAT) of 5%

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.
