Things to consider when
importing a car from France

Deregister the Vehicle in France
Before exporting, ensure the vehicle is properly deregistered with the French authorities. This involves submitting the necessary forms and returning the license plates.
Gather Essential Documentation
Ensure you have all necessary documents, including:
- Original French registration certificate (Carte Grise)
- Sales contract or invoice
- Certificate of Conformity (CoC)
Understand VAT Implications
For new vehicles (less than 6 months old or with fewer than 6,000 km), VAT is typically paid in the destination country. Ensure you have proof of VAT payment to avoid issues during registration.
Register the Vehicle in the Destination Country
Upon arrival, register the vehicle with the local vehicle registration authority. Requirements may include a roadworthiness certificate, proof of insurance, and payment of applicable taxes or fees.
