Vehicle imports from Germany to Poland

Does anyone have experience with vehicle imports from Germany. I currently have three vehicles registered and consider bringing them over, if its worth the hassle!

any luck regarding registration of your vehicles. I recently bought a car from Holland and would like to register it in Poland. I am a non-EU citizen. Any tips for registration?

There is no border control anymore hasnt been for years, you just drive straight through.

I recently bought a car from Holland and would like to register it in Poland.

I think you need to have owned that car in its place of purchase for a year to not be eligible for import tax. The hassle free way is to register it to a Dutch address and take Dutch insurance.

For Poles moving back to motherland -) it's 6 months (mienie przesiedlencze) though you can not sell the car within the next 12 months (if you sell it you will have to pay VAT and akcyza).There is no import tax on vehicles from EU just VAT and akcyza.
