The main areas that any importer must be aware of are the following:
1. Age of the vehicle ( this determines the amount of Duty & Tax payable a classic car (25-40 years) or historic car (40 years plus) will take less tax & duty
2. Ensure all documents (V5 / title etc) are available, European registrations can enter UK on a COC ( Certificate of Conformity) or on a temporary import 6months
3. TOR (Transfer of Residence) if you are moving your residency to UK you can apply for a TOR which will mean reduced Tax & Duty

We offer rates for the transportation, and clearance of the vehicle or goods into UK; after which we can arrange delivery of your vehicle/goods to a UK postcode/ address using our specialised carriers.
If you wish your vehicle to be registered then we transport your vehicle direct from UK Port to our own bonded facility at Mildenhall where we will complete all the necessary process for registration of your vehicle with DVLA ( including MOT Test, IVA Test, Light changes etc)
Once the process is complete and number plates fitted ( we can arrange personalised number plates) the vehicle will be professionally delivered to your residence or other destination of your choice.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
Import My car (Mercedes 1983)
Trans Global logistics was great when I decided to Import my car from the United Sates, they looked after all aspects of the import process as well as looking after all the registration process for the United Kingdom.
The process took a little longer than usual mainly due to DVLA Classic Car rules, so it’s important to check the different rules between Historic & Classic Car import.
Classic cars get taxed on import to UK based on the age of the car up to 40 years old and anything old takes a different tax bracket as a historic car.
Thanks for all the help from Trans Global Logistics UK Ltd .

Import My Car
When I decided to ship a car from the United States it was clear that shipping a vehicle of this size would need some special care and attention.
Trans Global Logistics UK Ltd helped my import my car and get it registered. As in my case the car was actually a converted van to a motorhome, this proved to be a little longer when passing through a IVA test, as the test can scrutinise parts that I didn’t think would be necessary. However Trans Global Logistics UK Ltd have looked after my vehicle throughout the process.
