Introduction

Importing cars from the USA to Europe is becoming increasingly popular due to significantly lower prices and a wider selection of models. However, this process can be complicated if you don't know where to start. In this article, we will discuss step by step how the process of shipping cars from the USA to Europe works.

Choosing a car at the auction

The first step is selecting the right car at a US auction. Auctions like Copart ir IAAI offer thousands of cars at various prices and conditions. It is important to carefully review the information, photos, and history of each car by its VIN code. Often, buyers consult local auto repair shops to estimate repair costs. This helps in making an informed purchase decision.

Auction win and deposit

To participate in the auction, a guarantee deposit must be paid. This ensures that you are serious about purchasing the car. After winning the auction, it is important to pay the remaining amount on the same day. US AUTO GLOBAL assists its clients in managing this process and ensures that everything goes smoothly.

Transportation from the USA to Europe

Once the car is purchased, the transportation process begins. Cars are usually transported in shipping containers. US AUTO GLOBAL collaborates with reliable partners and takes care of all logistical aspects, ensuring that your car is safely loaded and delivered to the designated port in Europe.

Document processing and customs formalities

Upon arrival at the European port, customs formalities must be handled. This includes paying import duties and VAT. US AUTO GLOBAL assists its clients with the paperwork and ensures that all necessary fees are paid on time. This is crucial, as without proper documentation, registering the car in Europe will be impossible.
