⏱️ Estimated Transit Time to Chile

🛳️ East Coast USA (Miami, Jacksonville, Savannah → San Antonio / Valparaíso): Approximately 20–35 days

🛳️ Gulf Coast USA (Houston, New Orleans → San Antonio / Valparaíso): Approximately 25–40 days

🛳️ West Coast USA (Los Angeles, Oakland, Seattle → Arica / Iquique / Antofagasta / San Antonio / Valparaíso): Approximately 12–25 days 🚀 Fastest Route

⚠️ Transit times are estimates and may vary based on carrier schedules, routing, port congestion, weather conditions, customs processing, and seasonal factors. Shipping method (Container, Flat Rack, Breakbulk, or RoRo where available) may also affect transit times.

👉 Fastest Route: West Coast sailings from Los Angeles, Oakland, and Seattle to Arica, Iquique, Antofagasta, San Antonio, and Valparaíso generally provide the quickest transit times for vehicles, containers, machinery, boats, household goods, and commercial cargo shipments to Chile.

📦 Container Shipping

Container shipping is one of the most secure and versatile ways to ship cargo from the USA to Chile. It is ideal for non-running vehicles, motorcycles, golf carts, boats, household goods, auto parts, machinery, and high-value vehicles.

We offer 20ft containers, 40ft containers, and 40ft Non-Operating Reefer (NOR) containers, along with Full Container Load (FCL) and Shared Container Load (LCL) options. Container shipping provides added protection from weather, theft, and damage, making it a preferred solution for luxury vehicles, classic cars, personal belongings, and commercial cargo.

🚗 RoRo (Roll-On/Roll-Off) Shipping

RoRo shipping is a cost-effective option for operational vehicles and wheeled equipment that can be driven directly onto and off the vessel. This method is commonly used for cars, SUVs, pickup trucks, motorcycles, commercial trucks, buses, trailers, motorhomes, and rolling machinery.

RoRo shipping offers fast loading and unloading, making it an efficient choice for vehicle exporters and equipment shippers moving cargo to Chile.

⚓ Flat Rack Shipping

Flat rack shipping is designed for oversized cargo that cannot fit inside a standard shipping container. This method is commonly used for heavy machinery, construction equipment, agricultural equipment, boats, industrial machinery, and project cargo.

🏗️ Breakbulk & Heavy-Lift Shipping

For oversized, overweight, or out-of-gauge cargo, breakbulk shipping provides a practical solution. This method is often used for large industrial equipment, mining machinery, cranes, generators, boats, and project cargo that exceeds standard container dimensions.

Our logistics team will recommend the most efficient and cost-effective shipping method based on your cargo dimensions, weight, destination, and budget.

Shipping a boat from the USA to Chile’s ports — Valparaíso, San Antonio, Iquique, or Arica — is a straightforward process with Royal Shipping Lines. Our team manages every step to ensure your vessel arrives safely and in full compliance with Chilean customs regulations.

Steps to Ship a Boat to Chile:

1. Prepare Documentation – Original vessel title, registration, bill of sale, and a valid passport for the consignee.

6. Customs Clearance in Chile – Our agents assist with clearance, duties, and delivery arrangements.

⚠️ Important: Certain items (hazardous materials, firearms, or restricted equipment) cannot be shipped with boats. Our team will guide you through Chile’s regulations to ensure a smooth process.

When shipping heavy machinery or industrial equipment from the USA to Chile, the following documents are typically required for smooth customs clearance:

• Commercial Invoice – with full description and value of the equipment

• Bill of Lading (BOL) – issued by the carrier with shipment details

• Chilean Customs may request additional paperwork depending on the equipment type, condition (new or used), and intended use.

Our experts at Royal Shipping Lines will guide you through every step to ensure compliance and avoid delays or extra charges.

Age & Emissions Requirements

• Passenger Cars: Chile allows the import of new vehicles and restricts most used passenger vehicle imports, with few exceptions (returning residents, diplomats, or vehicles over 30 years old classified as classics/collectors).

• Vehicles must meet Chilean emissions and safety standards, especially in major cities where environmental rules are stricter.

• Classic or collector vehicles (30+ years old) may qualify for exemptions but require special approval and may be subject to additional duties.

Prohibited or Restricted Vehicle Types

• Right-Hand Drive Vehicles: Not permitted for registration in Chile. Only left-hand drive vehicles are accepted.

• Salvage, Rebuilt, or Severely Damaged Vehicles: Typically prohibited and may be denied entry unless properly documented and authorized under special import permits.

⚠️ Note: Chile applies import duties, VAT, and other taxes based on vehicle value, engine size, and emissions compliance. Importing newer, fuel-efficient, and eco-friendly vehicles is generally more cost-effective and easier to clear through customs.

❌ Unlicensed firearms, ammunition, and explosives
