We ship vehicles to South Korea — RoRo or container
South Korea is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the Port of Busan. We recommend the most economical method for your car’s value and the arrival port, and prepare the entry documents before departure, not after the vehicle arrives.
- RoRo: The vehicle drives on by its own wheels — the most economical for used cars.
- Container: Secured with four straps and chocks under the tyres — more protective for luxury and classic cars.
- Triptyque: Temporary-entry procedures and release documents ready before shipping.
What sets shipping to South Korea apart
The nature of the route
By sea to the Port of Busan, one of the world’s largest, and by air to Seoul for the urgent.
What its customs look at
South Korea drives on the right and uses left-hand drive. An imported car goes through emissions and safety certification before registration, at a high cost. The belongings of someone moving there to live enter exempt, with conditions.
What we ship there most
- Relocation and students’ effects
- Commercial goods
- Samples
- Belongings
A tip from experience
Most people relocating ship their belongings and leave the car. Conformity certification there costs more than the freight.
