Frequently asked questions
Can every car from the USA be registered in the Czech Republic?
Most can, but some models need extensive modifications or are difficult to approve. That is why we recommend a consultation before you buy – we assess the specific car.
How long does it take to register a car from the USA?
It depends on the condition of the car, the extent of the modifications and how busy the approval station is. We give an estimate after reviewing the documents and the vehicle.
Do you also deal with customs duty and transport?
We help you find your way through customs clearance and arrange transport. We specify the details in your enquiry.
