Frequently Asked Questions About Denmark Car Shipping

Shipping a car from Denmark to the U.S. typically costs between $3,000 and $6,000.

The final cost depends on the vehicle size, port location, and service type (container or RoRo).

You’ll need the original Bill of Lading, Bill of Sale, Danish registration, EPA and DOT compliance forms, and import declaration documents for U.S. customs.

Only vehicles 25 years and older can be imported without meeting EPA/DOT standards. Newer vehicles must comply with U.S. safety, emissions, and import regulations.

Transit times range from 2 to 6 weeks depending on the destination port in the U.S., with an additional 1–2 weeks for customs clearance and vehicle pickup in Denmark.

Opting for shared container service and choosing major export ports like Copenhagen can significantly reduce costs. Consolidation services also lower per-vehicle shipping expenses.

We ship cars from major ports including Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg, and Odense. We also offer nationwide pickup across Denmark for door-to-door service to the U.S.
