Silk road - TIP and duration of stay of car..
Hi,
My wife (65) and myself (69) are not bikers, nevertheless, we are contemplating a trip from France to China and back (South Road and North Road), probably in a Land Cruiser (we had a Defender for 5 years in Africa, but we are getting older and want some more comfort.
For Africa, we used to travel for 2 to 4 months, then came back home for 2 to 6 months, etc..
Everything with a Carnet, leaving the rig in countries like Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, etc.. was never a problem.
We would like to do the same in Asia, i.e. split the trip in 6 parts.
It does not seem to be so easy in Asia, so we need the following informations:
- What is the duration (and the price) of the TIP's in the various countries (provided they give one, otherwise what are the temporary import formalities for cars ?)?
- Is it possible to leave the car for some time (let's say a maximum of six months) in the respective countries (for example in a trustworthy hotel or garage, or in a custom storage at airports??
Thanks a lot in advance for the information.
Cheers.
Eric
