Sell my car on German plates: FAQs

How long can a German-registered car stay in the UK?

Usually only a limited time before it has to be registered here, depending on your circumstances. If you're now living in the UK, selling it to us takes that worry away.

Do you need the Fahrzeugbrief?

Yes, the Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil II is essential. If you can't find it, tell us before you do anything else.

My export plates are about to expire. What should I do?

Contact us as soon as you can. We'll arrange collection so the car doesn't need to be driven.
