How to ship an engine overseas?
Engine blocks and their spare elements are usually sent either on pallets or in wooden crates. Such vehicle parts must be thoroughly cleaned to nullify hazardous residues before shipping. Thus, they can travel as ordinary heavy packages and not as dangerous goods.
Is there any insurance for shipping car parts internationally?
With Eurosender, all your risks will be covered. The amount of standard insurance depends on the type of transportation service selected for sending car parts internationally. You may also choose an additional insurance formula with higher coverage. Make sure to keep the original invoices as the proof of your items’ value.
Will I have to pay taxes when shipping car parts to the UK?
VAT and import duties are charged on all items imported to the UK from abroad. If the shop you order from does not include these spends in the product and shipping costs, the buyer is obliged to pay the taxes. Read more about post-Brexit import duties and VAT charges on our dedicated page.
