Car shipping from Australia to India

Ports

Melbourne and other Australian ports to Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) and other Indian ports approved for vehicle imports.

How it ships

20 ft and 40 ft containers, chocked and lashed.

Transit

Depends on the routing and transhipment. We confirm it when we book.

What we handle

Cartage, export declaration, packing and lashing, and the booking with the line.

How it works

1. Get a price. Use the price box on this page. Published lanes price instantly; anything else is priced by a person, usually the same business day.
2. Book it. We confirm the sailing, cartage and documents by email before anything is committed.
3. We collect, pack and clear it. Cartage to the container yard, packing and lashing, and the Australian export declaration.
4. Track it to India. You get a private tracking link showing the vessel, sailing date and each milestone.

Before you ship to India

• India only accepts right-hand-drive vehicles, so Australian vehicles are a good fit.
• Used vehicle imports are tightly restricted, including an age limit, and import duty on cars is high. Check eligibility and the duty with a licensed Indian customs broker before you buy.
• Vehicles can only be cleared through certain Indian ports, so tell us the receiver's city and we will route it to the right one.
• Clean the vehicle inside, outside and underneath before it ships.

General information only, checked on 11 October 2026. Import rules are set by the destination country and change, so confirm them with the receiver's customs agent before you buy or ship.
