In this case, the car can be transported by truck or trailer to the border and then transferred to another carrier to continue its journey. It is important to ensure that the carrier has the necessary permits to cross the border.

2. Maritime transport

If the destination country is on another continent, the most popular option is sea transport. The car is loaded into a container and then shipped across the ocean. It is important to note that some countries have strict regulations on the import of vehicles and it is necessary to ensure that the car meets the requirements before shipping.

Although it is more expensive than land or sea transport, the car will arrive at its destination in a much shorter time. It is important to note that not all airports allow loading and unloading of vehicles and it is necessary to find a suitable airport.
