Shipping a non-EU car to PL by a non PL citizen (but PL Resident) [13]
Ok guys, thanns for all the threads, very helpful. I have some questions more:
1-Harry: you talked about converting the Honda civic, and said that it wouldn t make any econimic sence anymore to bring the honsa as it seems i ll be paying for converting.But, what is the level needed for this conversion??? i heard that lights should be orange and not red for example, and this already exist in the civic. I am not aware of other conversion requirements, but in anycase, will it be sooo expensive to do so??
2-we can register the car in poland under my wife name, if this makes it easier; but the point is that we have been owning this car for the last 2 years, under my name as her husband, so it is our common belonging. If i need to change the ownership to her name before shipping it to poland, still it will not work as they will tell me there in the shipyard in poland that the car is owned by her for lexx than 6 months (it will be actually a mmonth or something).... There is something not logical in all this. If i knew this, i would have registered under our common name or even her name since i bought it in march 2009!
3-Warszawski:: you said "As the car is being imported from outside the EU, it does not make any financially sense"...why? becoz i have to pay tax? but i am bringing my belongings for good to poland, where i will be living the rest of my life...can it be considered just as piece of furniture as db 1874 said?
4- does any body know any reference written to consult? i called the custon agent in gdynia today, and they transfered me to the cenrtal custom of all poland. we called them, and they told us to check certain document online made of 35 pages!!! my wife is checking this now. We called the embassy in the gulf, and they said to check online forumm!!!!!!!
...i feel it is going to be a trap for me, once i send the car and go to pick it up from gdynia, they will just come and say: oupsaaaaaaaaa!!! you have to pay 22%, plus...plus plus plusss............
How can i get clear answer??
SOS!
