Car shipping to Libya
We ship vehicles to Libya — RoRo or container
Libya is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the ports of Misrata and Benghazi. 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.

A tip from experience
Misrata usually clears faster than the others — we recommend it where the delivery allows for an inland haul.
