Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Seoul to Tbilisi

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.

The 25-Year Rule in the U.S. allows vehicles not originally made for the American market (like many JDM or Euro cars) to be imported without meeting full DOT/EPA standards once they are at least 25 years old from their manufacture date, bypassing costly modifications and complex certification. It makes importing classic and foreign-market cars simpler for enthusiasts, requiring forms like the HS-7 and proving the vehicle's age, but state emissions rules (like California's) can still apply.
