Information on Taxes & Duties:

You can provide a self-estimate for taxes and duties upon arrival using this below information.

The Federal Bereau of Revenue for Pakistan issued a table which can assist receivers of cargo in obtaining the amounts they’re due to pay to customs before arrival. The first step toward your self-estimate is calculating the CIF Value. The CIF Value is declared to customs and this figure is what the payable taxes and duties is calculated on.

The CIF Value is:

C – Commercial Value of Cargo

I – Premium Cost if Marine Insurance is taken out

F – Freight Cost

You combine the above together to come out with a total value known as the CIF Value.

Once obtained, the below table will be used as an indication to show you what percentage of the CIF Value will be paid as your taxes and duties.

New Cars (Percentages of the CIF Value) TOTAL:
Up to 800cc 50% 17% 5% 1% 73% of the CIF VALUE
From 801cc to 1000cc 55% 17% 5% 1% 78% of the CIF VALUE
From 1001cc to 1300cc 60% 17% 5% 1% 83% of the CIF VALUE
From 1301cc to 1500cc 60% 17% 5% 1% 83% of the CIF VALUE
From 1501cc to 1600cc 75% 17% 5% 1% 98% of the CIF VALUE
From 1601cc to 1800cc 75% 17% 5% 1% 98% of the CIF VALUE
From 1801cc and above 150% 17% 5% 1% 173% of the CIF VALUE

Now you match up the CC of the vehicle with the right category above.

Vehicle Shipping From the UK to Australia

RORO – Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne & Sydney

Shipping a car to Australia? How much does it cost to ship a car to Australia?  Fast Customs Clearance can answer any question regarding the safe & affordable way of shipping a vehicle from the UK.  We offer both a shared container, dedicated container or RORO service to Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne & Sydney every week.  Vehicle shipping to Australia with a professionally renowned company will not only offer you peace of mind but it also will ensure that your car is in the safest hands throughout the voyage.

Car shipping costs to Australia

Our Typical car shipping costs from the UK to Australia in our shared container service seems to be the most economical choice if you are taking personal items inside the car. The cost for a saloon car to Australia is £1070.00 and a 4 x 4 is £1185.00. Our loading depot is in Felixstowe where your vehicle will be loaded inside a 40ft HC container along with 3 other cars using the R-Rack system. Your second option is to ship your car by roll on/roll off, the costs for a saloon to Australia start from £945.00 and a 4 x 4 is £1110.00 based on it sailing out of Southampton. We also offer dedicated 20ft, 40ft and 40ft HC container services from Southampton. To ship a car in a 20ft container to Australia is £1595.00, a 40ft and 40ft HC will cost £1995.00.

RORO vehicle shipping to Australia

RoRo vessels are purpose built ships and are purely there to ship rolling cargo such as cars, vans, trucks, motorhomes, caravans and plant machinery to either Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne or Sydney. Our roll on/roll off car shipping services to Australia have always been a cheaper alternative to shipping vehicles from the UK due to the ease of loading and unloading of cargo both here in the UK and in Australia. Vessels sail from Southampton every week and offer fairly competitive transit times.

Container shipping to Australia

Our dedicated container shipping to the Australia operate from Southampton. We can collect and deliver your vehicle to our loading premises in Southampton for you or you can arrange to deliver this yourself to save costs. We can accommodate either fully operational vehicles or non-runners and load them safely in to either a 20′, 40′ or 40′ HC container. Vessels sail weekly and offer good transit times right across Australia.

Import Permit for Shipping Vehicles to Australia

Providing that you are able to obtain an Import Permit, typical costs for importing a saloon car in to Melbourne by roll on/roll off for example will be approximately AUD$1480.00. This price does not include any GST or the quarantine inspection, if your vehicle is dirty it will be sent for a steam clean which will be at your expense, GST is also known as the Goods & Services Tax and will be applied to the figure quoted above.

As a second example of costs in Australia, if you decide to ship your car in a 20ft container to Adelaide for example your rates will increase quite significantly to approximately AUD$2980.00 for your import fees, again the rate does not include any GST or the quarantine inspection fee. Shipping your car in a container is a lot more expensive when importing in to Australia however the advantage is that you can load your vehicle with personal items for no extra charge.

The Quarantine Inspection in Australia

When shipping a car to Australia it must be thoroughly cleaned both inside and outside of the vehicle before it can be exported out of the UK to meet with AQIS high inspection standards. It is the Importers responsibility to ensure that every vehicle that they are importing is clean and free of all quarantine risk material (QRM). This includes seeds, soil, mud, clay and animal material, live insects and plant material such as straw and leaves for example.

What paperwork is needed to ship a car to Australia?

When shipping cars, trucks, vans or motorhomes to Australia we would require copies of the V5C, Photo page of the consignee’s passport, Purchase/Sales Invoice. Full list of required documents:

  • V5C (or title document) for the vehicle
  • Photo page of the consignees passport
  • Purchase/Sales Invoice of the vehicle

With the correct paperwork and Import permits in place, the shipment of your vehicle to Australia will be as stress-free as it possibly can be. For further information or to obtain a quote to ship your vehicle to Australia, contact us today.

Information on Taxes & Duties:

You can provide a self-estimate for taxes and duties upon arrival using this below information.

The Federal Bereau of Revenue for Pakistan issued a table which can assist receivers of cargo in obtaining the amounts they’re due to pay to customs before arrival.

The first step toward your self-estimate is calculating the CIF Value. The CIF Value is declared to customs and this figure is what the payable taxes and duties is calculated on.

The CIF Value is:

C – Commercial Value of Cargo

I – Premium Cost if Marine Insurance is taken out

F – Freight Cost

You combine the above together to come out with a total value known as the CIF Value.

Once obtained, the below table will be used as an indication to show you what percentage of the CIF Value will be paid as your taxes and duties.

New Cars (Percentages of the CIF Value) TOTAL:
Up to 800cc 50% 17% 5% 1% 73% of the CIF VALUE
From 801cc to 1000cc 55% 17% 5% 1% 78% of the CIF VALUE
From 1001cc to 1300cc 60% 17% 5% 1% 83% of the CIF VALUE
From 1301cc to 1500cc 60% 17% 5% 1% 83% of the CIF VALUE
From 1501cc to 1600cc 75% 17% 5% 1% 98% of the CIF VALUE
From 1601cc to 1800cc 75% 17% 5% 1% 98% of the CIF VALUE
From 1801cc and above 150% 17% 5% 1% 173% of the CIF VALUE

Now you match up the CC of the vehicle with the right category above.

Below is an example of how to calculate the estimated taxes and duties:

I have a 800cc vehicle

My CIF Value is 1,700.00 GBP

Therefore I would have to pay 1,241.00 GBP in taxes and duties using the above information extracted from the table. (73% of the CIF).

Please Note, all the above is to produce an estimate of how much you will have to pay please do not take these as exact figures with extraneous variables such as rates of exchange making the amount payable subject to change upon arrival.
