If you want to export a vehicle that has not yet been registered or a vehicle that has been registered in the Federal Republic of Germany - and possibly decommissioned - to a foreign country, you will need an export license plate.
The license plate is issued if the vehicle is to be driven abroad under its own power
e.g. TÜV, DEKRA, GTÜ, KÜS, GTS, FSP
additionally:
- Current and valid business registration and, if available, current and valid excerpt from the commercial register (also as a copy)
- Power of attorney, if the person authorized to dispose does not personally submit the application on site
additionally: identity card or passport of the authorised representative
in the case of registered vehicles which are not registered in Bremen or Bremerhaven at the time of their registration there
for the export of vehicles (if necessary, also by fax to the registration office for the specific occasion)
additionally
- old vehicle documents and a deregistration certificate issued before 1 October 2005 or
- registration certificate part I and II
for registered vehicles
Note:
Since July 1, 2010, export license plates have been subject to vehicle tax. Vehicle tax must be paid upon registration for the duration of the export license plate's validity. The minimum taxation period is one month.
Tip:
The license plates can be produced during registration. Private providers have set up near the registration authorities for this purpose. The cost of the plates is not included in the fees. The license plates are stamped by the registration authority, i.e. they are provided with stickers.
36,70 EUR The fee is increased by 15.30 if the data cannot be retrieved from the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt and the data is not available in the local vehicle register.
Additional fees may apply in individual cases.
