Here’s a typical price breakdown for a non-EU import to Portugal:
Estimated Costs for a Non-EU Import (with Taxes)
- Service Fee for Non-EU Import: €750
- IMT Tax/Registration: €165
- DUA Registration (Conservatory): €85
- Power of Attorney: €22
- Brand Representative Fee*: €150 (if needed for homologation approval)
- Technical Sheet*: €250 (for vehicles without a European Konformitätsbescheinigung. Price can vary, depending on the brand)
Additional Costs
- Inspektion: €80-90 (if required)
- License Plates: €25-50
- ISV und IVA (Vehicle and Sales Taxes): to be determined
For non-EU imports, both ISV (Vehicle Tax) and IVA (MEHRWERTSTEUER) are applicable, which can make these imports more costly. ISV depends on the vehicle’s engine size, CO₂ emissions, and age, while IVA is based on the vehicle’s market value in Portugal.
*This may not be necessary if a COC or European Homologation are available. Cars from the UK, Switzerland and Norway are often already approved in the EU. A COC normally costs between 0 and 250 euros. Often the document can be obtained for free.
