Hi All :-)

Can anyone recommend a good shipping Agent in Doha
To handle the export(Canada) and import (Doha)
of my vehicle.

Dont know for sure if I want to bring my car over but I would like to see exactly what would be involved.

Thanks for any help!!

Thanks for the advice!!

I bought a second hand car here in Doha but I have a brand new one sitting in my garage in Canada (paid off)

Having a hard time selling it and was thinking it can't be that difficult/expensive to ship it over to Doha

All my friends living here are saying "NO" leave it in Canada :(

Majority rules :)

I looked into importing my vehicle. The cost of shipping and import tax means that a reasonable second hand car costs more than a new one here. Plenty of second hand cars for sale here but some really good deals on new cars with good spec.

I don't believe that it's worth it! and to pass through all this dilemma and long process,its a big headache. Either buy a car (2nd hand or new) or you can have the option of renting one in this part of the world.

Good luck :)
