Shipping Cost from Toronto, Ontario to San Juan

Importing a car from Canada to the US involves shipping costs ( hundreds to thousands of dollars), plus duties (like 2.5% for cars, 25% for trucks), taxes (like AC tax, gas guzzler tax), Customs Broker fees (hundreds of dollars for filings), a CBP Bond, and potential state-level taxes, adding significant variability but generally costing thousands in total for a smooth process, though USMCA trade agreement often reduces tariffs for US-made vehicles.

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.

You can generally send a car to the Dominican Republic if it's no more than 5 years old from its manufacturing date, with specific deadlines around June 30th each year, while commercial trucks have a 15-year limit; cars older than this are prohibited, though exceptions might exist for returning residents or specific situations, requiring permits and paying duties/taxes.
