Used Car Shipping from China to Douala, Cameroon

Cameroon is one of our busiest West African routes — we ship used Toyota, Nissan and Hyundai vehicles to Douala every month. Here is everything you need to know as an importer:

Current rates

• RoRo shipping from Tianjin/Shanghai to Douala: $1300–$1600 per SUV/sedan, transit time 32–38 days
• 40ft container: 3 SUVs per container, total rate $4000–$4800, ideal if you are shipping spare parts at the same time
• No age limit: Cameroon does not have the strict 10-year import age rule that applies in Europe, so you can ship well-priced used Japanese cars from China.

Important tip for Douala customs

Douala port is known for slow clearance and unexpected inspection fees if you use an unlicensed local agent. We work with two trusted clearance partners in Douala that our clients have used for years — we will introduce you to them so you do not get overcharged at the port.

Documents we handle for you

We prepare all the Chinese side documentation: export customs declaration, vehicle certificate of conformity, commercial invoice and packing list. You only need to send us your import information once, and we take care of the rest until the ship sails.
