Shipping Cost from Singapore to Cotonou

The Roll-On/Roll-Off (RORO) service is a favored choice for shipping cars from the USA to Cotonou. It allows vehicles to be driven directly onto the ship in the USA and off again at Cotonou Port, offering an efficient and cost-effective transport solution.

Singapore's car law centers on the 10-year Certificate of Entitlement (COE), a quota license allowing vehicle ownership, which expires after a decade, requiring owners to either renew it (for 5 or 10 years), sell the car, or deregister it, with renewals costing the Prevailing Quota Premium (PQP) and older cars facing road tax surcharges and eventually no more renewal options after a certain age.

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.
