How it works
Three steps from a car you are considering to a clear, country-specific import cost.
Choose the registration country
Pick where the car will be registered. Each market opens with its own tax model, currency, authorities, and import workflow.
Enter the car
Search by registration number or VIN, or type in the make, model, year, and key specs — the calculator fills in the rest.
See the full landed cost
Import duty, VAT, registration tax, and shipping add up into one total — shown next to the local market price.
What you get
Every market calculator is built around the same goal — the true cost of bringing a car in.
Local tax rules built in
Every market has its own VAT rate, registration tax, and emissions rules. Each calculator applies the right model for that country.
Total landed cost
Purchase price, shipping, duty, VAT, registration tax, and fixed fees add up into one clear total — no surprises after the deal.
Automatic vehicle data
Look a car up by registration number or VIN and the technical details needed for the tax calculation are filled in for you.
Market-price comparison
See the full import cost side by side with the local market price, so you know whether importing actually saves money.
Save & compare candidates
Keep several cars side by side, revisit your estimates, and track the ones worth importing as you make a decision.
One multi-country platform
Norway and Denmark are live today, with more markets added as their local tax logic and official source data are ready.
See the whole cost in one place
Importing looks cheap until the taxes land. Each calculator breaks the purchase into every cost line — so the total you see is the total you pay to get the car registered and on the road.
The example here shows the shape of a result: costs abroad, taxes and fees, the full import total, and how it compares with buying the same car locally.
Illustrative example
Your figures will differ by country, vehicle, and exchange rate.

Common car import scenarios
Import taxes depend heavily on what you bring in and where. These are the situations Importcalc is built to estimate.
Import a car
Bringing a used or new car across a border adds duty, VAT, and a registration tax that differs by country. A car import calculator turns the purchase price into the real on-the-road cost before you commit.
Import an electric vehicle (EV)
EV import taxes can differ sharply from combustion cars — some markets reduce or waive registration tax for low-emission vehicles. Checking the rules first shows whether an imported EV is genuinely cheaper.
Import a van
Vans and light commercial vehicles are often taxed under separate rules from passenger cars. Estimating duty, VAT, and registration tax up front keeps a commercial import from going over budget.
Export a car from Norway
Selling a car abroad means handling deregistration, paperwork, and any refundable amounts. Working the numbers in advance shows what an export is really worth before you list the car.
Frequently asked questions
▸What is Importcalc?
Importcalc is a set of country-specific car import calculators. You choose the country where the car will be registered, enter the vehicle, and get the full landed cost — duty, VAT, registration tax, shipping, and fees — before you buy.
▸Which countries are supported?
Norway and Denmark are live today, each with a calculator built on local tax rules and official sources. More markets are in progress and appear in the selector as their tax logic is ready.
▸How accurate are the import estimates?
Each calculator uses current tax rates and rules from official government sources. The result is a reliable estimate for decision-making, but the final amount is always set by the national tax and customs authorities at import.
▸Do I need the car details to start?
No. You can start with a registration number, a VIN, or just the make, model, and year. The calculator fills in the technical data it can and lets you adjust the figures as you learn more.
▸Is Importcalc free to use?
Yes — you can start for free without registering a payment card. Each market has its own plans for heavier use and extra workspace tools, shown once you open the calculator for that country.
▸Which country should I choose?
Choose the country where the car will be registered and driven, because that is the country whose import taxes apply. The selector suggests a likely match from your browser and location, and you can pick any live market.
