Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Sao Paulo to Brazil

Because we have very high import tariffs. It's very expensive to import things. And this makes products manufactured in the country very expensive as well, because the competition is pricer (with tariffs).

The 25-year rule in the U.S. allows vehicles imported from other countries to bypass Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emissions rules if they are at least 25 years old from their manufacture date, making them legal to import as classics/antiques. This rule, part of the Imported Vehicle Safety Compliance Act, was designed to allow older, non-U.S.-compliant cars (like Japanese Domestic Market or "JDM" models) to become legally importable, but it's strictly enforced, with attempts to bypass it risking seizure.

Import Duty 35% IPI 25% ICMS 18% PIS, COFINS and other taxes 12%
