Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Port Moresby to Bogota

It's usually cheaper to drive for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, shipping can become competitive or even cheaper when you factor in the "hidden" costs of driving (gas, hotels, food, wear-and-tear) versus the upfront shipping fee, especially if you're moving with others or have an unreliable car.

Importing a Vehicle: Non-Diplomats are not allowed to import used vehicles into Colombia. Non-Diplomats can import new vehicles which must be manufactured in the current year with zero accumulated miles. Diplomats may import used vehicles once registered with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The cheapest way to ship a car is by using an open transport carrier, choosing terminal-to-terminal service, booking during off-peak seasons, being flexible with dates, and getting multiple quotes from reputable brokers, as this method uses multi-car trailers with no weather protection but significantly lowers costs compared to enclosed shipping. For even shorter distances, having someone drive it or finding a driver moving in the same direction can be the absolute cheapest, but open transport is best for standard auto shipping needs.
