💲 RoRo Shipping to Italy – Cost Overview
Import duty in Italy is typically 10% of the vehicle’s value, plus 22% VAT on the CIF value plus duty. For classic cars over 30 years old, import duty is waived and VAT reduces to approximately 7%.
Shipping costs depend on vehicle size and origin port, but RoRo is often more efficient than container options.
🚢 Why Ship via the Port of Genoa?
- The **Port of Genoa** is Italy’s busiest RoRo port, handling approximately 9.6 million tons of roll-on/roll-off cargo.
- Its **Intermodal Marine Terminal (IMT) and Gruppo Spinelli Terminal provide robust RoRo infrastructure, including ramps, rail connections, and large storage yards.
- Efficient inland links via rail and road networks facilitate fast vehicle movement across Italy.
👉 Genoa delivers top-tier capacity, reliability, and reach for vehicle imports.
📑 Import Rules for Italy
- Standard Taxes: Import duty (~10%) + VAT (22%) on CIF + duty.

- Duty-Free Exemptions:
- Italian citizens or residents returning after ≥18 months abroad, with vehicle owned ≥6–12 months can import duty-free.
