Would love to ship my bike from Toronto Canada to Australia to ride for 3 months. Can you help me? What about insurance? Also people I have talked to said that Australia is very sticky on imported bikes. I had an excellent experience shipping my bike to England with Motorcycle Express out of the USA. They did everything including insurance and all the paperwork. Rented bikes in Australia twice but its quite expensive for the amount of time Ill be there
Hi Janice, thanks for your comment. Sure, would be happy to help 🙂
We are literally in the middle of writing a guide on how to ship a motorcycle to Australia! Unfortunately, it’s not finished yet, so i’ll try and answer your questions here instead.
Firstly, you have two options as you don’t want to rent: 1. Ship your bike / 2. Buy a bike
Option 1 – Shipping
Yes, shipping a bike to Australia can be worrisome because of the quarantining. Your bike needs to be immaculate – absolutely spotless and showroom clean. The same goes for whatever gear you send with your bike. Insurance can be sorted over the phone using Skype. More importantly, you will need a Carnet de Passage to ride in Australia.
I suggest you have a read of this guide Motorcycle Travel Guide: Australia as it explains how to purchase insurance and the carnet and paperwork requirements. It also has a section in there on shipping your bike too.
Additionally, please contact Brent from Bikes Abroad directly. His information and email are listed on this page and he will help you on the Australian side with clearing customs. I would definitely recommend using him as an agent in Australia.
Secondly, for shipping from Toronto, please contact Marie, you’ll find her info and email on the Canada Motorcycle Shipping Companies page . Tell both Marie and Brent that Andy from Mad or Nomad sent you and they’ll help you with your shipping requirements and liaise together.
Option 2 – Buying
Another option is to simply buy a bike in Australia and sell it when you’re done. How to do this has been explained in the above link for the Motorcycle Travel Guide: Australia. But I understand it’s fun to have your own bike!
On a separate note. We are within the next two weeks uploaded multiple guides on Australia and especially Tasmania. Make sure you do not miss riding in Tasmania whatever you do!
I hope this helps,
All the best,
Andy
Hi, I would like to ship my bike from Perth in Western Australia to Phnom Penh Cambodia.

Hi Kerry, please contact Brent directly via email for shipping quotes. His email is listed above.
Thanks,
I just shipped my BMWGS1200 from Auckland to Sydney by airfreight. About 2000USD all included (including BioRisk/ Quarantine). Although spotless clean, it took 12 days from handover in Auckland to pick-up in Sydney (airfreight!!!!!). 10 days were waiting time in Sydney due to lack of inspection personell. Inspection took less than 1 hour and went smooth
Hi Robert,
Thanks for adding this information to this guide, that’ll be very helpful for anyone going the same way.
Cheers,
Andy
Hi, My partner wants to ship her Harley with her when she relocates from Tennessee, US to Sydney.
I have read all the above threads and your mate Brent seems the way to go. Since the threads are over 1 year old, is this still the case?
Thank you very much in advance.
Love the website!!
Hi Dave, thanks for the comment. Yes, Brent is still the guy to go with. Have a read of the How to Ship to Australia guide for more info, and get in touch with him via email. He’ll help with the import.
And also thank you for your kind words on the website!
Best of luck to you and your partner, hope the move goes well.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi Ernesto, please contact the company listed on this page directly via email. Brent will be able to help you. And i’d contact Javier from Dakar Motos in Buenos Aires to help you receive your bike. His details can be found on the Argentina shipping companies page.

Hi Ernesto,
I shipped (airfreight) motorcycle from Brisbane to Kuala Lumpur in 2024. Freight forwarder was as follows:
MACH 1 Logistics
PO Box 355, Romsey 3434
13 High Street, Lancefield Vic
Romsey 3434
AU
From Buenos Aires I shipped in March 2023 per airfreight to CapeTown using http://www.dakarmotos.com/. Javier did an excellent job
Good luck and safe travel. Argentia is a very nice country for motorcycling, especially ruta 40 to Ushuaia. But as well the region of Bariloche, Mendoza, San Juan and Salta. Be careful in Buenos Aires
