Net export from the EU — buying without European VAT

When a car leaves the European Union it can be bought at the net price — without European VAT, which is 19–21% depending on the country. In practice this is the single largest saving in the whole import chain, and it requires correct paperwork: export declaration, proof of exit, a properly structured dealer transaction. VIPCAR.International arranges net export through its own legal entities in the country of purchase — the Munich and Marbella offices plus the partner network across Europe. The package includes transit plates, transfer insurance and the full export document set for customs at destination. We calculate and show both figures — gross and net — so the saving is visible in the numbers, not in the sales pitch.

How much does net export save?

The VAT rate of the purchase country: 19% in Germany, 21% in Spain and Czechia. The exact figure is in the written calculation.


Will any dealer sell at the net price?

Not any, and not directly to a private individual — which is why the deal is run by a network legal entity in the purchase country.


What are transit plates?

Temporary plates with insurance for legally driving the car to the EU border.
