It reads funny, I meant the car was in Playa Del Carmen physically. Not that the transaction would take place here. I altered the first post the be more understandable.

I am shipping a car out manana from Panama City (Linea Peninsular Shipping). Got my Temp. Import Sticker at The MX Consulate (Banjercito) in Austin, TX last week which took me all of 10 minutes (at most). Will pick up car in Progresso using a freight forwarder. As far as Belize, The Duty Free Zone ain't really Belize. Some people call it No Man's Land. Title can just be signed over at Aduana at MX border. I was just there 3 weeks ago. It all can be done legally. Last edited by absoluteAL; 05-17-2012 at 09:21 PM.. |

You are talking about shipping a vehicle, not selling a foreign plated vehicle when the duty has not been paid. And, yes, the duty free zone is really in Belize.

D.F.Z. = NO MAN'S LAND. I have driven 5 cars to Playa and have sold three. I have been through and done all legally. Have been to the border (southern) probably 8 to 10 times for auto related dealings. And it is not that I don't like the info you provided, it is just that it is not all correct.

Not sure why there would be a problem with bringing the car back into Mexico. Once they (Banjercito) even scraped my sticker and gave the purchaser a new sticker without ever leaving the parking lot (didn't have to go to Belize). I just signed the back of the title over to the new owner. |

  .Who's on first I will let anyone that wants to know about the process of shipping a car on Linea Peninsular out of Panama City FL once I have picked up the car in Progresso. That will be in less then a week and a half. Car has to be inspected by US Customs which they told me would take one to three days (not to inspect but to get around to inspecting it). Linea did not require any money upfront as it can be paid in US dollars at their office at the port in Progresso. Soooo, if the ship sinks.......  YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE ANYTHING IN THE CAR  .I have got to run. Have my tickets for Universal Studios, ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE in Orlando and the park opens at 9. Be back in Playa Tuesday. Enjoy the better weather as I heard that I missed some crappy weather in the last two weeks. Last edited by absoluteAL; 05-20-2012 at 06:53 AM.. |

On a related topic.....
When we came down to Mexico about 3 years ago, we drove our vehicle and a small utility trailer carrying the items we brought with us. Both the vehicle and trailer are listed on the Temporary Vehicle Import permit (my bad). The trailer is now over 10 years old and we no longer have a need for it, so we'd like to sell it. Is it possible to nationalize the trailer, or can it somehow be removed from the import permit in order to sell it. It is only worth $300 dollars and looks like it would be a hassle to deal with Aduana. Any suggestions.... Thanks, Dave |
