Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Yokohama to Addis Ababa

Motor Vehicles Only left-hand drive vehicles can be imported. Vehicles with tinted windows cannot be imported. Vehicles are subject to taxes. Current Ethiopian residents cannot import vehicles.

For Private importers: The private package is $2400 NZD plus Clean Car tax and any GST applied if the vehicle is shipped to any of the main ports and delivered within the metropolitan area. If delivery is out of the metropolitan areas, there will be extra transport charges applicable.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, the cost difference shrinks, and shipping can become comparable or even cheaper once you factor in gas, lodging, food, wear-and-tear, and your time, making the decision depend on distance, vehicle, your schedule, and budget. Driving saves money on carrier fees but adds wear on your car, while shipping costs more upfront but saves time, fuel, and stress.
