The process

Importing to Germany, step by step

01

Choose and confirm

Pick a car from our inventory. The price shown is the full amount payable to us — the vehicle, shipping to Bremerhaven, and all Korean-side costs.

02

Inspection and purchase

Our team in Seoul inspects the car in person and sends you a photographic report. We buy only once you approve.

03

Shipping

The car sails from Korea to Bremerhaven, insured for its full value. Crossing time is around four weeks.

04

Customs and VAT

We clear the vehicle on arrival. You pay 19% Germany VAT — there is no customs duty on Korean-built cars.

05

Registration and delivery

TÜV inspection is required before registration; we supply the full Korean documentation set your Prüfstelle will ask for. We deliver to your address and supply every document Zulassungsstelle requires.

Worth knowing

No import duty into Germany

Korean-built cars enter the EU free of customs duty under the EU–Korea Free Trade Agreement. On a €25,000 car that is roughly €2,500 you do not pay. Your 19% VAT and registration are settled with the German authorities as normal.

Questions

Importing to Germany

Do I pay customs duty importing a Korean car to Germany?

No. Under the EU–South Korea Free Trade Agreement, cars manufactured in South Korea enter the EU at 0% customs duty. In Germany you pay 19% VAT and your registration costs — nothing further to customs. We supply the proof of Korean origin the exemption requires.

How long does delivery to Germany take?

Typically 30–40 days from purchase to your address. The vehicle sails to Bremerhaven, clears customs there, and is transported inland to you.

How do I register the car in Germany?

Registration goes through Zulassungsstelle. TÜV inspection is required before registration; we supply the full Korean documentation set your Prüfstelle will ask for. We provide the full document file — Korean registration certificate, export certificate, bill of lading, invoice and proof of origin — which is what the authority will ask for.

Which Korean models sell best in Germany?

Genesis, Kia, Hyundai are the makes our German customers ask for most. Korean domestic specification is usually higher than the equivalent European trim, which is much of the appeal.
