The difference between temporary import and permanent import is that under temporary permit you don’t have to pay any registration fees or taxes but get to drive the car for a few weeks. However, when you are permanently importing it, you have to pay all the taxes and get the vehicle registered in Denmark. You will need to fill out the application form available for Temporary permit to import. There are some documents that you need to submit including:
- Proof of stay/Visa.
- Valid driving license.
- Current registration of the vehicle.
- Title deed of the car.
- Receipt of Permit fee of DKK 400.
However, this is only if you need to import the vehicle for a few weeks to six month. After that period the vehicle has to be sent back to USA.
