Vehicle import and customs clearance

We run the entire procedure for bringing a vehicle into Serbia, from collection at the seller to a cleared vehicle ready for registration. For companies and private buyers alike.

What we take on

The whole job, or the customs part only

Most often we handle everything. If you have already arranged transport, we can take on the clearance and documentation alone.

Vehicle transport

Transport arranged from the seller abroad to a customs terminal in Serbia, by road or by sea for overseas consignments.

Documentation

Documents checked and prepared before the vehicle arrives, so the procedure does not stall at the terminal.

Customs clearance

We carry out the customs procedure as your authorised representative and hand over the cleared vehicle with the paperwork for registration.

Procedure

How a vehicle import runs

The procedure is the same whether you are importing one vehicle or several.

  1. You send the vehicle details

    Make and model, year, engine type and capacity, purchase price and the country of origin. That is what we base the calculation on.

  2. You receive a cost estimate

    Before anything is set in motion you know roughly what the procedure will cost: transport, duties and our fee, itemised separately.

  3. We arrange collection and transport

    We collect the vehicle at the seller and arrange transport to a customs terminal in Serbia.

  4. We prepare the documentation

    Documents are checked and completed while the vehicle is still in transit, so no time is lost waiting for paperwork at the terminal.

  5. We carry out the customs procedure

    We lodge the declaration and represent you before the Serbian customs authority as your authorised representative.

  6. You collect the cleared vehicle

    You receive the vehicle together with the documentation required for homologation and registration in Serbia.

Documentation

What we need from you

The exact list depends on whether the importer is a company or a private individual, and on the country of origin. In most cases we need:

  • Invoice or purchase contract for the vehicle
  • Vehicle registration document from the country of origin
  • Proof of payment
  • Vehicle details: VIN, year, engine
  • Buyer's personal details, or company details
  • Transport documents, if you arranged transport yourself

Not sure what you have and what is missing? Call us and we will go through the list together.

Costs

What makes up the price

The total cost of importing a vehicle is not a single figure. It is made up of several parts, and we always show them separately:

  • The purchase price of the vehicle
  • Transport to Serbia
  • Customs duties and taxes under the applicable regulations
  • Terminal and customs procedure charges
  • Our forwarding fee

Duties depend on the vehicle type, engine, age and country of origin, and the regulations change from time to time. That is why we do not quote flat figures, but calculate for the specific vehicle instead.

Request a calculation

Send us the vehicle details

Make, model, date of first registration, year, engine, price and country of origin. That is enough for us to prepare a calculation. We reply the same or the next working day.

We use your details solely to answer your enquiry. We do not pass them on to third parties.
