WELCOME TO
The UK’s Leading Car Importers
Our quotes are fully inclusive and based entirely on your requirements. You can find out more about the process of importation of your car on this through this page, but don’t hesitate to get in touch and speak with a member of staff.
Getting your car to the United Kingdom
We are experts in logistics and can assist with getting your car into the United Kingdom from Belgium safely.
If your car is already in the United Kingdom, we can either remotely register your car – or you can bring it to our premises for the required works to be completed. However, if you require transportation of your car to the United Kingdom there are many different transport methods that can be used.
Depending on your requirements, the car can be transported inland to a port, or transported the entire way on a car transporter. Our car logistics solutions are bespoke to your car, so get in touch so that we can better understand your requirements.
How much tax will you need to pay to import your car from Belgium?
When importing a car from Belgium to the UK it is possible to do so without actually paying any tax. Granted the car is both over 6 months old and has covered over 6000km from new. In the eyes of the HMRC any less is deemed as a new car, therefore you would have to pay VAT – however, this can in most cases be claimed back.
When importing a new or nearly new car, the VAT must be paid in the UK so please don’t hesitate to run any queries past us in reference to planning your import taxes prior to purchase.
Belgium car modifications and type approval
For cars that are under ten years old from Belgium, they will need to comply to UK type approval. We can either do this with a process called mutual recognition or through IVA testing.
Every car is different and every manufacturer has different support standards for assisting their clients through the import process, so please enquire so we can discuss the optimum speed and cost option for your individual circumstances.
We manage the whole process on your behalf, whether that is dealing with the homologation team of your car’s manufacturer or the Department for Transport, so you can relax in the knowledge that you will be legally registered with the DVLA in the shortest time possible.
Left hand drive cars from Belgium will require some modifications, including those to the headlight pattern to avoid glare for oncoming traffic, the speedo to display the miles per hour reading and the rear fog light if it is not already universally compliant.
We have built an extensive catalogue of the makes and models of car we have imported so can give you a quick cost estimate of what your individual car will require.
cars over ten years old
Over 10-year-old cars and classics are type approval exempt, but still require an MOT test and certain modifications prior to registration. The modifications depend on the age but are generally to the headlights and rear fog light.
