Answers to Your Questions

Cars aged 30 years or more are charged import VAT at 5% instead of 20%. Import policies can change; confirm the current treatment with HM Revenue & Customs before you commit.

Vehicles are shipped by RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) with Höegh Autoliners and unloaded at Southampton or Bristol (Portbury).
