Shipping Cost from Quito to Marrakech

If you bring your own car into Morocco, on arrival you need to present the original vehicle registration documents, insurance certificate and your passport to the customs officer, and complete the vehicle admission form. Photocopies and faxes are not acceptable.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances (under 500 miles), but for long cross-country moves (over 1,000 miles), shipping can become comparable or even cheaper when factoring in your time, food, lodging, and significant vehicle wear-and-tear, making driving less cost-effective despite lower upfront gas costs. The decision balances direct fuel savings against the hidden costs and time commitment of a long drive, with shipping offering convenience and preserving your car's mileage and condition.

Customs duty (Droits d'importation) This is the main tax you'll pay when the car enters Morocco. It's usually around 17.5% of the car's value. If you're a Moroccan residing abroad (MRE) and over 60, you can get a major reduction on this tax.
