Importing a Vehicle to NZ

  • Cars in NZ are generally more expensive than in the UK, especially European models, which often makes shipping your car worthwhile.
  • All vehicles and paperwork go through a thorough check upon arrival in NZ.
  • This is called Entry Certification. Entry Certification is easier for personal imports.
  • A car qualifies as a personal import if it is owned and used for 12 months prior to shipment. Cars that are not personal imports must be Euro 4 compliant unless they are over 20 years old.
  • Ships sail weekly and take 6–7 weeks to reach NZ. It can take a further 1–2 weeks to import and register a car once it arrives.
  • Costs in NZ to import and register a car are approximately NZ$2,000–2,500.
  • NZ import taxes are: 0% duty on cars + 15% GST on the depreciated vehicle value + the shipping (no GST is payable for cars qualifying as personal imports).
  • The paperwork and procedures may seem complicated but are really quite straightforward, and it is simple to check vehicle compliance with the NZ Automobile Association.
