Kyrgyzstan's rules in brief

Kyrgyzstan is an EAEU member: customs duty follows the common tariff and depends on the car's age, engine type and engine size. Importing right-hand-drive cars has been banned since 2015 — US cars are left-hand drive. The 2026 preferential quota for electric cars is used up. Customs in detail

How it works

01

We bid on your behalf. VIN history checked via Carfax and Bidcars before every bid. We check the manufacture date and engine — both affect the duty in Kyrgyzstan.

Ocean shipping
The car ships in a container to Poti or Batumi port from Savannah, Houston or Los Angeles. Typically 3–5 weeks at sea.
03
Transit through Georgia
The car is not released into free circulation in Georgia. No Georgian excise or VAT. We prepare the transit/re-export paperwork.
04
Handover in Poti or Batumi
We hand the car to you or your carrier. Then: Azerbaijan → Caspian ferry → Aktau or Kuryk → transit through Kazakhstan → Kyrgyzstan. Customs clearance in Kyrgyzstan.

Cars from America to Kyrgyzstan: why via Georgia

Kyrgyzstan is one of the largest buyers of cars that pass through Georgia: according to Geostat, more than 16,000 cars were re-exported there in January–September 2026. Poti and Batumi ports receive containers from the USA; the car then crosses the Caspian to Aktau or Kuryk and travels through Kazakhstan in transit to the Kyrgyz border.

The car is not cleared in Georgia: no Georgian excise or VAT. It also crosses Kazakhstan in transit — customs clearance happens only in Kyrgyzstan, under the EAEU Common Customs Tariff.

For buyers from Bishkek, Osh and other cities

We buy cars to order on Copart and IAAI and hand them over in Poti or Batumi. A carrier then takes the car to Kyrgyzstan: the road to Bishkek usually goes through the Korday / Ak-Zhol crossing, and clearance takes place, for example, at the МТО «Автомобильный» post in Bishkek. For buyers from Osh, Jalal-Abad, Karakol and other cities, the clearance point and route are agreed with the carrier.

How much does it cost to ship a car from the USA to Kyrgyzstan: what the price is made of

There is no fixed price: the total depends on the lot, the auction and the payments in Kyrgyzstan. We do not publish prices — they go out of date quickly. The final cost consists of:

  • The lot price at auction and the auction fee.
  • Delivery from the yard to a US port.
  • Ocean shipping to Poti or Batumi.
  • Georgian transit documents.
  • Delivery from Georgia to Kyrgyzstan — Caspian ferry and transit through Kazakhstan.
  • Customs clearance in Kyrgyzstan (customs fee, import duty, VAT) and registration.

Which US car to choose for Kyrgyzstan

Under the EAEU tariff, the duty depends on age, engine type and engine size, so check these before bidding — the customs amount depends on them directly. Right-hand-drive imports are banned, but US cars are left-hand drive. Good fits for these conditions: Toyota Camry and RAV4, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson and Elantra, Kia Sportage. Electric cars: the 2026 preferential quota is used up — check the 2027 conditions.
