When shipping from Teoloyucan, Mexico to Shekou, China, prepare for the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific hurricane seasons (June-November), which may cause delays and necessitate flexible routing. Secure vessel space well in advance during peak periods like the China Golden Week (September 20-October 7) and Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February) to avoid congestion. Build in additional buffer days for potential disruptions due to winter storms in North America (December-March) and ensure all cargo is properly secured to mitigate risks during adverse weather conditions.

Readying Autos for international shipping Requires a full wash and dry, removal or securing of all loose items, Checking for fluid leaks, and ensuring the battery is Securely mounted. Logistics providers recommend leaving about a quarter tank of fuel, fully charging the battery, documenting existing damage with photos, and providing all required vehicle and customs documentation before the carrier collects the vehicle.
Rules on shipping personal items inside vehicles Vary by carrier and route. Many international carriers Prohibit household goods inside passenger vehicles due to customs and security regulations, while some domestic haulers allow small quantities if they are below window level and securely fastened. We recommend confirming with your carrier in writing and understanding that personal items are often Excluded from insurance, and they can complicate customs inspections.
To reduce moisture and rust risk for automotive cargo, We recommend starting with a completely dry vehicle, sealing all openings, and avoiding storage under sprinklers or in standing water. For longer or ocean shipments, using Desiccant packs inside the auto, applying Temporary corrosion protection to vulnerable metal parts, and choosing Enclosed containers wherever possible will significantly cut condensation and corrosion risk.
Standard carrier liability for autos is usually Limited and may not reflect the true value of your Car. Insurance brokers recommend purchasing All-risk cargo insurance that covers theft, impact damage, and moisture-related issues such as corrosion or water intrusion. Provide an accurate value, share recent photos and condition reports, and confirm that loading, unloading, and any storage periods are Included in the policy.
For international vehicle transport, you typically need Proof of ownership, a Commercial invoice or bill of sale, a copy of your passport or company registration, and export/customs declarations filed in advance. Some destinations also require homologation or conformity certificates. We recommend checking destination-specific rules well before shipping to avoid delays, extra storage charges, or refusal of entry.
Documentation typically includes the vehicle's original title, bill of lading, commercial invoice, and any required export permits from Mexico, as well as import permits and customs declarations for China.
Yes, regulations may include compliance with environmental standards, safety certifications, and tariffs applicable to automotive imports in China, which must be adhered to for successful customs clearance.
