Le Havre → Matadi
Vehicle export to Matadi
Matadi is the main seaport of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It sits on the Congo River, about 150 kilometres upstream from the Atlantic mouth, which requires vessels serving it to sail up the river.
It is the usual destination for vehicles shipped to Kinshasa and the west of the country. The vessel's characteristics and draught determine the routing: we specify this in the quote.
Shipping a vehicle to Matadi
Two shipping modes are available to Port of Matadi. The RoRo vessel suits a roadworthy vehicle shipped on its own; the container protects the vehicle and allows personal effects or goods to be loaded around it.
We handle picking up the vehicle in Europe, the export customs formalities and loading in Le Havre. Import customs clearance is the responsibility of the recipient or their local freight forwarder.
- RoRo vessel (roll-on/roll-off) — the most direct and economical mode
- Container — full protection and extra cargo capacity
