Shipping Darwin - Dili

Hi David,
I shipped my bike from Darwin to Dili in November, I went directly through Toll Global who ship in conjunction with ANL but also manage the depot in Dili, which makes it nice and easy. They charged per cubic meter and didn't require the bike to be crated, they use PJ's customs to pack the container, they did a great job, I did provide them with my own tie downs and the bike arrived in perfect condition. One thing I found was that the quote and end price may vary significantly and also a friend shipped a month earlier and paid quite a bit less. Good luck, Timor Leste has some amazing riding.

feel free to message for more info or check out the shipping page on my Blog

Shipping info from Lenor Castulo Toll/ANL

Hi all,

I had send a request for information to mr. Lodwyke of ANL. I got a fast response from mr. Lenor Castulo. The information I got, see below.

Is it possible to ship a motorbike as LCL? I mean in a container together with other freight?

- Yes, can ship a motorbike as LCL.

What are the costs, approximately, of shipping a motorbike by ANL from Dili to Darwin? Does it include harbour handling, custom fees, document costs?

- if you have CARNET, here are the costs

1 Unit Motorbike EXP DILI-DARWIN (min. of 3CBM)

Ocean Freight************************** USD110.00 per CBM

BAF (Fuel Surcharge)*************** USD 20.00 per CBM

East Timor Tax************************* 2.64% of the Freight

Documentation Fee****************** USD 30.00 per B/L

Port Security Charge**************** USD 40.00 per CBM

Stuffing / THC************************** USD 50.00 per shpt.


Has the motorbike to be crated?

- Can ship the motorbike even not crated.


How long will it take, approximately, from delivering the motorbike in Dili harbour to picking up in Darwin harbour?

- From Dili to Darwin, approximately 15 days.* (Route is DIL-SIN-DAR)

My estimate on timing would be closer to a month going by past experience and ANL has not mentioned in your quote the charges from Customs and Quarantine, Patricks and PJ's Customs here in Darwin.

A friend and I did Dili to Darwin in July 2014. The ship was rerouted through Singapore, which changed the travel time from about 3 days to about 3 weeks.

We had a whole container to ourselves for two bikes, and we loaded them up and tied them down ourselves.

When we got the initial quote, there was a 4cbm minimum (which it doesn't sound like there is for going Darwin-Dili), which was well over what a bike would be, so we figured that we could probably get both bikes in that 4cbm minimum. But to our surprise, since our bikes were not registered under the same name, we had to have two shipments, rather than bundling them together, which cost us quite a bit more than we were expecting. All in all, I think it cost about $800 for each bike.

Oh, and the shipping was done with TOLL, so I'm not sure what might have changed since the ANL involvement.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
