getting out of vlad
 

gday guys
couple of questions , there is a lot of info getting into vlad but what about getting out ? we want to ship 4 bikes from vlad back to melbourne and have a shipping company in mind , if only they would respond to my emails , but what sort of time are we looking at to get them out ?
is the customs equally as difficult going out as coming in ?
and do we need to be there the whole time while coustoms figure out what to do ?
thanks in advance for any help

Hello Tucan,

We have information on our WEB site about shipping from Vladivostok to Australia.

Happy travelling,
Geoff..

If Geoffs info is not enough I can put you in touch with guys who shipped three KLRs Vlad to Melb in 2004.

cheers

Hi Tucan,
When we left Vladi for Korea by ferry we had to do a lot of paperwork. The ship agent went with us to different customs do prepare the papers.
I think its better to be there personally and plan in a few extra days. Officials in Russia have new ideas every day ;-)

We had also a problem wit our visa. It was expired for 10 hours when the ferry left the harbour. They made us leave the ship again and to take our bikes out. It was hard work to prolong the visa but we could stay another week in wonderful Russia :-)

Greetings Patrick
