Shipping Cost from Jakarta to Tirana

Non-resident tourists can ship their cars over for use with non-Albanian license plates on a temporary basis for a maximum of 6 months within a 12-month period with no requirement to pay customs duty. Following this period, the car must either be exported out of Albania or registered with the Albanian authorities.

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.

Estimated VAT (20%): Based on the higher of the declared vehicle value or minimum tariff value.
