How to register????

alpina

Please help, looking for some advice here....

Friend of mine just taken delivery of a '68 classic, all he has is a certificate for the car stating; /origin/year/manufacturer/cc. Yes all is legal but where does he go now to clear/register/NCT
Should he carry out any restoration prior to carrying out any of the above?

Many thanks...

A certificate as in a licensing certificate? He needs to bring it (and the car) to his local VRO. I hope it's EU registered?

E.U. registered? & if not what are the consequences, think it may be from Oz.(?) Cheers!

I've never done it so this isn't gospel, but I think duty & VAT will be levied on the car; the owner will also be taxed on the shipping charges.

If he's already taken delivery he might get away without paying VAT. Isn't this done at the port/customs?

Regarding VRT there should be no problem. I registered my Fiat Spider with no docs at all. The chap took a look at the model and chassis number to confirm that the car was a '72 (or at the very least 30+ years old).

I'd imagine they'll sort you out for €50. Whether they'll be asking about VAT... I doubt it?

NO nct for cars over age 30.

thank christ... emissions emissions :eek:

Go to the VRO and check it out, it shouldn't even take long, unlike when you are tryin to get a VAT exemption, that can take 6 weeks and they don't like to be hurried (Z Z Z Z)
