Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from New Orleans, Louisiana to Bangkok

The average price to ship a car from USA to Thailand ranges from $2100 to $4020, and the duties to import a car to Thailand from USA are duty of the value of the vehicle + $1500 to $2500 for local charges in Thailand.

The cheapest international car shipping method is usually Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where vehicles are driven onto specialized ships, costing around $900-$2500+ but leaving cars exposed; for better protection, consolidated container shipping (sharing a container) is more affordable than dedicated containers, while air freight is the fastest but most expensive, best for luxury or rare vehicles, so compare RORO vs. shared containers for budget, destination, and vehicle value to find your cheapest option.

Permanent import is available for cars, provided the vehicle is used, and you meet certain criteria (e.g., residing in Thailand for over a year). SIAM Tip: Ensure you have a valid import permit and all documentation to avoid customs fines.
