Why ship a car to Morocco from the UK
The Ship Cars is a specialist UK vehicle export company moving cars, SUVs, classics, motorbikes and light commercials to Morocco every month. From Tema and Apapa in the west to Mombasa and Dar es Salaam in the east and Durban in the south, African ports operate on dense weekly RORO rotations supported by shared 40ft container groupage. Typical clients on this lane include returning diaspora customers, alongside private owners relocating to Morocco and returning residents importing a personal vehicle. Our UK-to-Morocco corridor is engineered around predictable transit, transparent pricing and full compliance with Morocco customs.
Vehicles depart from Bristol (Portbury), Felixstowe, Southampton and arrive at Tangier Med, Casablanca via West African RORO rotation calling Antwerp and Dakar. Typical door-to-port turnaround is 5–8 days to tangier, supported by marine all-risks insurance, GPS-tracked UK collection and bonded warehousing where required.
