US Customs & Transit Logistics
Clearing your vehicle from Georgia to major international destinations requires careful coordination and strict adherence to maritime export schedules. Ensuring absolute compliance with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at our primary Brunswick departure port prevents costly terminal staging delays or missed vessel departures.
Mandatory Export Documentation
- Original Certificate of Title: Must be completely clear of active financial liens. A formal bank release letter is mandatory if a lien is present.
- Bill of Sale: Itemizing the verified purchase price for international customs valuation declarations at your arrival ports.
- Photo ID / Passport Copy: Must perfectly match the legal name listed on the vehicle’s title document.
- EIN or Passport Number: Required for filing the mandatory Electronic Export Information (EEI) via the Automated Export System (AES).
For safety and maritime regulations, your vehicle’s fuel tank must be strictly at one-quarter (1/4) tank or less when dropped off at our primary marine terminal gateway in Brunswick. If your vehicle arrives with more than a quarter tank of gas, terminal operators may turn you away or charge a premium siphoning fee to handle the excess fuel before staging.
If you utilize our Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) service out of Georgia, international maritime shipping laws strictly require the vehicle to be completely empty of all personal effects. The only items permitted inside are the factory spare tire, jack, and factory floor mats. Any loose personal belongings left inside the cabin or trunk will be flagged or confiscated by port security during vehicle check-in.
We regularly handle both running and non-running vehicles from Georgia. However, if your vehicle is classified as a non-runner (meaning it cannot start, steer, or brake under its own power), you must notify us in advance. Non-runners require specialized mechanical loading equipment and tow assets at the local terminals, which incurs an additional handling fee.
US Customs will not allow a vehicle with an active financial lien to clear export from any Georgia terminal. If your vehicle is financed or leased, you must obtain an official, notarized Lien Release Letter from your lender explicitly authorizing the vehicle to be permanently or temporarily exported out of the United States. This letter must accompany your original title during the mandatory 72-hour validation process.
