Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Shenzhen to Paris

Step 5: Estimate your tax liability for importing goods from China to France. French customs will apply a 22% value-added tax,(including 0-17% customs duties and 4.2% general tariff). Other taxes and fees may apply depending on the type of items you're shipping.

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.

Remember, every shipment is unique – much like your business, and we pride ourselves on recognizing that. In general, the average price of a 20ft container (FCL) for shipping from China to Europe is between 1500 and 3000 USD, while the average price of a 40ft container (FCL) is between 2500 and 4500 USD.
