INTERNATIONAL CAR SHIPPING TO AZERBAIJAN | BAKU & POTI ROUTES

Ship Your Car to Azerbaijan from USA

Ship your car to Azerbaijan from anywhere in the United States using RoRo (Roll-On/Roll-Off) or container shipping, with a strong focus on routing through Georgia’s ports as the preferred entry point for Azerbaijan imports. Since 2007, West Coast Shipping has specialized in international car shipping to Azerbaijan, successfully delivering thousands of vehicles for private owners, car dealers, and commercial exporters across the Caucasus region.

Rather than relying on intermediaries, we manage the entire process in-house—from nationwide vehicle pickup in the U.S. and export documentation to ocean freight coordination and cross-border delivery support. Most shipping to Georgia’s Poti Port, a proven logistics gateway that allows efficient re-export to Azerbaijan by land or rail, offering flexibility, reliability, and smoother regional transit compared to direct routing.

We provide competitive shipping solutions from major U.S. export hubs including California, Florida, and New Jersey, along with complimentary nationwide pickup service to support Georgia-routed shipments.

Primary Routing via Georgia (Poti Port):

Our core Azerbaijan service is built around shipping to Georgia’s Poti Port, where vehicles are consolidated and then transported onward to Azerbaijan. This routing is widely used by importers seeking predictable transit times, streamlined handling, and greater control over final delivery into Azerbaijan. Direct shipping options may be available in limited cases, but Georgia remains the primary and most reliable gateway for Azerbaijan-bound vehicles.

CAR SHIPPING COST TO AZERBAIJAN FROM USA

How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car from the USA to Azerbaijan?

The cost to ship a car from the USA to Azerbaijan varies based on multiple factors including departure location, vehicle size, shipping method, and seasonal demand. East Coast departures (New Jersey, Florida) typically offer shorter transit times and more competitive rates compared to West Coast routes.

Most vehicles are shipped to Azerbaijan's ports or via our strategic Georgia (Poti Port) gateway, which often provides faster consolidation schedules and cost savings for onward transport to Azerbaijan. Final costs also include Azerbaijan customs duties (typically 20-30% of vehicle value), VAT, and local delivery charges.

Destination charges in Azerbaijan—including port handling fees, customs clearance, import duties (20-30% of vehicle value), VAT, and local delivery—are typically paid upon arrival and are separate from the ocean freight quote. Our team provides transparent estimates for total landed costs so there are no surprises.

  • 20ft container: 1-2 vehicles plus cargo
  • 40ft container: Up to 4-6 vehicles
  • RoRo shipping available at competitive rates for operational vehicles

Our regular container consolidation service to Azerbaijan and the Caucasus region allows multiple vehicles to share space, often reducing total shipping costs by up to 50% compared to dedicated single-vehicle containers. We offer flexible departure schedules from East and West Coast ports, with weekly consolidations via our Georgia gateway for optimized routing to Azerbaijan.

Ports We Serve in Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan — Flexible Port Options & Strategic Routing

We offer flexible routing options for vehicle shipments to Azerbaijan, providing you with the most cost-effective and time-efficient solution for your needs. We coordinate ocean freight (container or RoRo shipping), customs clearance support, and delivery arrangements throughout Azerbaijan.

Your vehicle can be delivered to the port for self-collection or we can coordinate inland delivery to your location in Azerbaijan.

Port of Baku is Azerbaijan's primary maritime gateway, handling the majority of the country's vehicle imports with modern port facilities and established customs procedures. For many shipments, our Georgia (Poti Port) consolidation route offers advantages including:

  • Weekly consolidated departures (more flexible scheduling)

  • Competitive pricing through container consolidation

  • Shorter transit times from US East Coast ports

  • Established overland transport network to Azerbaijan

RoRo Shipping to Azerbaijan for Oversized Vehicles & Heavy Machinery

RoRo (Roll-On/Roll-Off) shipping is specifically designed for oversized vehicles, commercial trucks, buses, RVs, and heavy construction or agricultural machinery that exceed standard container dimensions. If your unit is too large for a 20ft or 40ft container or requires specialized loading equipment, RoRo provides a practical solution for shipping from the USA to Azerbaijan.

For large or heavy shipments to Azerbaijan, our RoRo shipping calculator provides transparent pricing based on your equipment specifications, dimensions, weight, and US departure port. We coordinate RoRo shipping to Azerbaijan's ports or via our Georgia (Poti Port) gateway with onward transport to Azerbaijan.

Important: RoRo shipping requires your vehicle or equipment to be in operational condition and able to be driven on and off the vessel. Non-running units require alternative shipping methods.

RoRo is ideal for:

  • Heavy machinery (excavators, loaders, tractors)
  • Oversized vehicles and commercial trucks
  • Units that can be driven onto the vessel

Container Shipping Is The Best Option for Cars to  Azerbaijan

For oversized vehicles, commercial trucks, and heavy machinery, RoRo is often the recommended method because it avoids container size limits and simplifies loading for drivable units.
For standard cars, SUVs, and motorcycles, shared container shipping is typically preferred for added enclosure and consolidation savings.

“Excellent communication and genuine interest in our vehicles well being throughout the whole process. Highly recommend them for all your vehicle shipping needs!”

Vehicle Protection During Transport

Protect your vehicle during international shipping to Azerbaijan with Cargo Damage Protection (CDP). This optional coverage helps safeguard your vehicle from pickup at our U.S. warehouses through ocean transport and delivery to Azerbaijan ports or via our Georgia (Poti Port) gateway, coordinated with our trusted destination partners throughout the Caucasus region

Most standard auto insurance policies don't cover international ocean transport between the USA and Azerbaijan. If you decline our Cargo Damage Protection, please note that our liability is limited under international ocean carriage regulations (COGSA - Carriage of Goods by Sea Act) and may be capped at $500 per shipment.

For high-value vehicles, classic cars, or luxury automobiles, we strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive CDP coverage to protect your investment. We offer enhanced coverage options tailored to your vehicle's declared value.

Before shipping your classic car to Azerbaijan, confirm what your state provides for proof of ownership so we can ensure compliance with U.S. export requirements.
