UK to Europe: Customs Duties and Taxes
Here we have attempted to simplify the requirement associated with transporting your vehicle. We base our pricing on transport of your vehicle by our fully enclosed motorcycle van door to door.
There is no VAT on the movement of vehicles to Europe since the 1st of January 2021.
| Age of Vehicle | VAT amount payable | Duty Due on Importing to EU |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicles Under Thirty Years Old | 21% VAT | 6% Duty |
| Vehicles of Thirty Years Old and Over | 9% VAT | N/A (no duty) |
⭐️ Nota Bene: For very high value historic bikes of 30 years and over, we can offer customs clearance through Belgium where import VAT would be 6% and no duty. There would be an additional charge of EUR 300
