Every vehicle type is a different application to the Department of Land Transport, with its own timeline and cost structure. Here's what to plan around before you pick an entry date.
$800 for motorcycles and cars, $2,000 for motorhomes and campervans — shareable across a group crossing.
Often required at the point of entry, depending on the crossing.
Applies where a guide is needed beyond the border crossing itself.
For vehicle registration and any other non-English documents.
If you're travelling with a pet, verification documents are required.
Optional for motorcycles and cars if you need a faster turnaround.
Join a group crossing to split the border clearance fee · Apply 3 months in advance to save around $100 · Apply early to avoid paying express processing fees.
