Things to consider when 
transporting a car from Germany

  • Sales Contract (Kaufvertrag)
    Ensure it includes all necessary details such as buyer and seller information, vehicle specifications, and agreed terms.
  • Vehicle Registration Documents
    Obtain both parts of the German registration certificate—Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil I (Fahrzeugschein) and Teil II (Fahrzeugbrief).
  • Certificate of Conformity (CoC)
    This document confirms the vehicle meets EU standards, facilitating registration in another EU country.
  • Roadworthiness Certificate:
    Ensure the vehicle has a valid TÜV certificate or equivalent, indicating it meets safety standards.
