IMPORT A CAR FROM SOUTHERN IRELAND TO THE UK

Specialised Shipping Services UK Ltd have years of experience in the import of cars and vehicles from Southern Ireland to the UK.

In the main, the only requirement for modification of an import from Southern Ireland to the UK is a speedometer change. Dealerships will only offer a total replacement of the odometer if the vehicle speedometer is not dual read. We are able to accomplish this in a more cost effective manner by swapping the speedometer fascia only with a high quality polycarbonate replacement.

Following completion of the modification, the process described under the European Mutual Recognition Scheme is required in to achieve UK car registration.

When you import a car from Southern Ireland to the UK, import duty is not normally payable but NOVA (Notification of Vehicle arrival) entry is still required within two weeks of the vehicles arrival.
