What are the rules for temporary entry, permanent import and transfer of residence in the UK and the EU?
The UK and the EU have separate rules. Which one applies depends on where you live and how long the vehicle will stay.
| Option | Who it is for | Duty and tax | What you need |
|---|---|---|---|
| Temporary entry, UK (visitors) | People who live outside the UK and bring their own vehicle for private use | No duty or VAT if it leaves again within 6 months in total over 12 months | Foreign registration and tax, form C110, and the vehicle must not be sold, lent or hired in the UK |
| Temporary entry, EU (visitors) | People who live outside the EU, using their own vehicle privately | No duty or VAT while it is temporarily admitted, usually for up to 6 months | Foreign registration; the vehicle must not be lent, rented or transferred |
| Permanent import, UK | Anyone keeping the vehicle in the UK | 10% customs duty on cars (less if the car qualifies under a UK trade agreement) and 20% VAT | Import declaration, NOVA notification to HMRC within 14 days, vehicle approval, then DVLA registration |
| Permanent import, EU | Anyone keeping the vehicle in an EU country | Customs duty of up to 10% on cars, plus VAT at the rate of the EU country where it is cleared | Import declaration in the country of clearance, then registration in your EU country |
| Transfer of residence, UK | People moving their main home to the UK | No duty or VAT if HMRC approves Transfer of Residence relief | Approval on form ToR1 before the import declaration, plus bill of sale and registration document |
| Transfer of residence, EU | People moving their normal residence to the EU after at least 12 months outside it | No duty or import VAT if the vehicle has been owned and used for at least 6 months before the move | Registration in your name abroad; clear it within 12 months of moving; do not sell or lend it for 12 months |
| Classic / historic vehicles | Vehicles at least 30 years old, in original condition, of collector interest | UK: an effective import VAT rate of 5% for qualifying collectors' items. EU: no customs duty; import VAT is reduced in some countries, for example Germany 7%, France 5.5%, Netherlands 9% and Spain 10%. | Evidence of age, originality and history |
A visiting vehicle must leave again before its time limit runs out and cannot be sold, lent or hired while it is here. Our broker, a local agent we introduce, or your own broker can make the import declaration.

Touring / Overlanding
How do I ship my vehicle home after a trip?
Most travellers ship home from Durban, which has the most sailings. Arrive in the port city about a week before sailing to finish customs.
What you need
- Your carnet, to be discharged when the vehicle leaves South Africa
- Vehicle registration document and passport
- Keys and a contact in the port city
- Marine insurance, if you want cover at sea
Before you ship
- Clean the vehicle inside and out
- Remove gas bottles and declare lithium batteries
- Ask us which carriers accept items inside the vehicle
- Deliver the vehicle to the port about 48 hours before the ship
Direct or stopping?
Direct services go non-stop to Europe. The stopping service calls at West African ports and is usually cheaper but slower.
Delays at the port
If the ship sails late, daily storage applies on the quay, from about R1,492 for a passenger vehicle.
Other destinations
We also ship from South Africa to South America, the USA and Australia.
Importing to the UK or Europe
Can I bring a vehicle into the UK or Europe for good?
If the vehicle is staying, it is cleared for free circulation when it lands and then registered. Relief may apply if you are moving your home.
- Clearance
- Our broker, a local agent we introduce, or your own broker can make the import declaration.
- After arrival in the UK
- Notify HMRC through NOVA, get vehicle approval, then register and tax with DVLA.
- After arrival in the EU
- Register the vehicle in your EU country once it is cleared.
- Permanent exports from South Africa
- Allow extra time: the vehicle must reach Durban at least 2 weeks before sailing for export formalities.
- Documents
- Registration document, passport, bill of sale and the bill of lading.

Questions about shipping from South Africa
How much does it cost to ship a car from South Africa to the UK?
RORO sea freight for a standard car typically costs US$1,630–1,840, based on IVSS quotes in the last 90 days, plus about US$750–1,250 export costs and £295–395 UK import costs. A shared container from Durban is £1,800.
Is there a container share from Durban?
Yes, subject to availability: £1,800 per vehicle to the UK or €2,000 to Europe, including normal costs in South Africa and at arrival.
Can I leave belongings in the vehicle?
One carrier only takes completely empty vehicles. Others decide case by case, and the vehicle must look empty; anything left inside is at your own risk.
Do I pay duty and VAT when the car arrives?
Visitors who live outside the UK or EU can usually bring it in temporarily without duty or VAT. Anyone keeping it pays duty and VAT unless Transfer of Residence relief applies. See the entry rules table.
Can I ship from Walvis Bay, Namibia?
By container only: a 20ft costs €3,200 to EU ports or £3,125 to UK ports. RORO is not offered from Namibia because services are transhipped in South Africa.
What if the vehicle has lithium batteries?
Lithium-ion batteries must be declared before booking. In a container they are shipped as hazardous cargo, which normally adds US$700–1,000 or more.
When are the next sailings from South Africa to Europe?
Live schedules from the carriers we book with. Dates move; we confirm yours at booking.
