Ukrainians in their own case showed all the nuances of customs clearance

Two weeks passed before the end of the grace period (February 22) for the clearance of cars on euro meters. More and more Ukrainians are trying to get Ukrainian numbers without paying too much, and some are still hesitating, the candle game is worth it.

As a customs clearing procedure, how much do you really have to pay for everything and how not to get caught in the trap of crooks, let's explain it in our example.

Recently, the journalist of the portal "KnowUp.lv" had to undergo a procedure of customs clearance. In addition to a considerable amount, you must also be patient.

Question of Price

For everything to go fast, it is worth asking for help from the broker, who takes on average $ 250.

Whether it pays to buy a car in Europe and then clean it up under the new rules is no secret to anyone who will save a little money. Beneficial only when the car is relatively new (5-7 years old).

In our case it was Volkswagen Golf IV, for over 15 years, with a 1.9 liter engine and a diesel engine. I bought a car for $ 1,800. The merchant broker mentioned the amount of 1150 euros, which reduces the amount of VAT (20% of the value of the car) and customs duties (10%).

After filing all the documents, including the certificates of withdrawal of registration in Lithuania (they paid 400 USD). , but some brokers take from $ 200), you will be informed of the total amount of customs clearance.

In our case, the amount of customs payments amounted to 58920 UAH.

It is important that you send money to the customs account number (you will be informed by the broker, you can also find it and check it on the official website of the customs service). The payment takes place in hryvnia through the bank branch, terminal or Internet banking, please note that the commission of the bank is at least 1%.

Do not forget that the funds required for customs clearance must in no case be handed personally to the broker, but only to the amount you have called for his services. These mistakes are made by these Ukrainians who now write allegations of fraud to the police, when intruders, in the appearance of a broker, take documents for cars and money, and then disappear.

After payment, you will receive a check and original documents (check on payment of customs duties, technical passport for cars, registration documents, buyer with the specified cost of the car purchased, passport number and identification).

paid 1,200 UAH to the broker for the preparation of some of the necessary certificates, including Euro-2, etc.

Your car takes you to the customs territory. For the stay and the services of the customs agents, you will have to pay 1020 UAH more at departure

After the filing of the documents, you wait 2 to 4 hours. And all, the first quest is over, the broker will bring you documents on the customs clearance of the car.

With these documents within 10 days, you must pass the certification. This procedure costs in Kiev, for example, about 4500 to 5500 UAH.

After that, you go to the MREV to record the car registration of Ukrainian numbers. It costs about 600 UAH.

So, according to all calculations, bought for 48,000 USD foreign car, clearance, certification and broker services at 132,000 hryvnias, or 4,800 dollars. In Ukraine, these cars sell on average between $ 5,500 and $ 6,500.

The car, as well as the clearance formalities and privileges provided by the new law, will cost a little cheaper if you have already bought it with Ukrainian numbers. .ua, Ukrainians promised a duplicate clearance.

In addition, Znay.ua wrote that Ukrainians are practically ready to sell cars with denominations in euros for a dime.
