Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Orlando, Florida to Santo Domingo

Yes, vehicles must meet the Dominican Republic's customs requirements. Cars older than five years are often subject to additional fees. Ship Overseas will help you navigate all regulations to ensure compliance.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances (under 500 miles), but for long cross-country moves (over 1,000 miles), shipping can become comparable or even cheaper when factoring in your time, food, lodging, and significant vehicle wear-and-tear, making driving less cost-effective despite lower upfront gas costs. The decision balances direct fuel savings against the hidden costs and time commitment of a long drive, with shipping offering convenience and preserving your car's mileage and condition.

In general, you can expect shipping a car to the Dominican Republic to take around three weeks. However, this time frame is an estimate. Actual delivery times will vary based on factors such as weather, high/low shipping season, customs, and more.
