Toyota Land Cruiser LC79 Pickup Shipping to Ghana from Dubai

Shipping method

RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) is the preferred method for the Toyota Land Cruiser LC79 to Ghana. The LC79 pickup's compact footprint and self-drive capability make RoRo economical and straightforward—the vehicle simply drives onto the vessel at Jebel Ali and drives off at Tema. Container shipping is available as an alternative if you require extra protection during transit, though it typically costs more and takes slightly longer. Most buyers of work-oriented pickups like the LC79 choose RoRo for its speed and cost efficiency on the West African route.

Transit time and port

Expect 18 to 26 days from Jebel Ali Free Zone to Tema, Ghana's principal container and general cargo port. This window accounts for the vessel's routing through the Gulf of Guinea and standard port operations. Tema lies about 25 kilometres east of Accra and handles the majority of Ghana's imported vehicles. Discharge and customs clearance at Tema typically add a few days once the vessel arrives, so plan for the full port-to-collection process accordingly.

What arrives with the vehicle

Your Land Cruiser LC79 will arrive at Tema with the factory keys, owner's manuals, service documentation, and OEM warranty cards intact. The vehicle ships in its original pre-delivery condition—clean, fueled, and ready to drive off the vessel. Ghanaian import paperwork requirements (bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and certificates of origin) travel with the shipment. You will handle customs duties and vehicle registration through Ghana's relevant authorities; your freight forwarder coordinates with Tema port on your behalf. Ensure all import permits and duties are settled before collection to avoid delays at the port.
