Car shipping to Mauritania
We ship vehicles to Mauritania — RoRo or container
Mauritania is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the Port of Nouakchott. 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.
