Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Sao Paulo to Amsterdam

The cheapest international car shipping method is Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where you drive your car onto a specialized ship, offering significant savings over container shipping for standard vehicles, though it leaves the car exposed; for better protection on high-value cars, shared containers are cheaper than dedicated ones, while air freight is the most expensive but fastest option. To find the best deal, compare quotes from several international shippers like those found on uShip or Shiply or Shiply, and factor in potential customs duties.

When planning for the costs to ship a 20-foot container from Brazil to the USA, it will be realistic to budget for an average price from $2,000 to $3,750 (USD).

Shipping a car to Brazil is done via international ocean freight, typically using container shipping, as roll-on roll-off is restricted for most personal imports. Vehicles usually depart from ports like Miami, Houston, or Los Angeles and arrive at Santos or Rio de Janeiro.
