2024 Sea Freight Container Shipping Rates To & From Sint Maarten

Sint Maarten is one of the most prosperous island countries in the Caribbean. Being colonized by the Dutch, this tiny nation serves as one of its governorships and is well-advanced to accommodate any foreigner who wishes to move there.

The mini-state is for everyone who desires a quieter life in a place where summers never end. Even though the country is a Dutch colony, English is spoken by practically every inhabitant. Retirees who live there can enjoy its beautiful beaches, the vibrant nightlife, and the stable economy without worrying about what goes on in the rest of the world.

So, moving to Sint Maarten is fairly easy, even though sea freight might not be the best option. There are only a few countries in the world that ship to this island, and even fewer that receive shipments from there.
