Shipping Cost from Stockholm to Kingston

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

Jamaica sets specific age limits for importing vehicles, generally allowing cars up to 6 years old, motorcycles up to 5 years, and commercial vehicles with varying limits (e.g., 10 years for some vans/buses, up to 30 years for heavy trucks, with recent changes allowing older vehicles for taxis), but you must confirm the most current regulations with the Jamaica Trade Board or Customs Agency as policies get updated, especially regarding public passenger vehicles (PPVs).

The cheapest way to ship a car is typically open transport (an open carrier truck), as it's the most common and moves multiple cars at once, saving costs over enclosed shipping. To get the best rates, book in advance, be flexible with dates, compare multiple quotes from different brokers, choose terminal-to-terminal, and ship with a near-empty gas tank.
