Beirut
Lebanon assesses customs on value rather than on a fixed table, which makes the declared value and the documentation the centre of the transaction.
Because duty is calculated on vehicle value, a clean, defensible invoice is not a formality — it is the basis of the number you pay. Inconsistencies invite scrutiny and delay.
Beirut is the gateway, with nationwide distribution. We prepare the export set to match the unit and its value so the customs step is straightforward.
Left-hand drive is standard and a wide range of saloons, SUVs and EVs move here. If you want, tell us the segment and we will shortlist models that suit Beirut driving.
