Things to consider when
importing a car from Italy

  • Deregistration and Documentation
    Ensure the vehicle is deregistered with the Italian Public Vehicle Registry (PRA). Obtain the original registration certificate (Carta di Circolazione), the PRA certificate, and a valid sales contract.
  • Certificate of Conformity (CoC)
    Acquire the CoC to confirm the vehicle meets EU standards, facilitating registration in the destination country.
  • Technical Inspection
    Verify that the vehicle has passed the Italian roadworthiness test (Revisione). This may be required for registration in the destination country.
  • VAT Considerations
    For new vehicles (less than 6 months old or under 6,000 km), VAT is typically paid in the destination country. Ensure you have proof of VAT payment.
  • Registration in Destination Country
    Register the vehicle with the local authority, providing all necessary documents and paying applicable taxes and fees.
