Scotland is part of the United Kingdom, so if you decide to import, you will need to adhere to all of the policies regulated by the UK. The first two requirements are specific regulations that must be met by the auto:
The auto must also comply with environmental and safety guidelines. The most straightforward way to do this is to use the Individual Approval scheme and follow the steps given on this website.
Once it is moved, you will be subject to customs duties and taxes, and using the specifics, you can easily compute the total here.

Required Documents For Moving.
- Passport.
- Bill of lading or air waybill.
- Declaration.
- Visa.
- Work permit.
- C104A or appropriate import form.
Most individuals who move are also subject to the Value Added Tax (VAT), which is due before moving. Only those who fall into a few specific categories can have this additional fee waived. Exemptions may be given if:
- You are permanently moving.
- You are importing a previously exported vehicle.
- You are a non-European Union member and you don’t intend to stay longer than 6 months (this is known as temporary admission relief)
To determine the amount of your VAT, or to find out if you qualified to have the duties and taxes waived, complete the “Notification of Auto Arrival” service online here which is the website for HM Revenue and Customs.
It is also extremely helpful and will ensure the process is smooth if you complete a “Vehicle Import Pack” from the Driver and Licensing Agency (DVLA) on the Department of Transport website.
The DVLA is similar to the DMV in the US and will also be the agency you contact if you would like to haul over 10 years of age since there are restrictions placed on older autos.
Finally, be sure to hire a reliable company to assist you. While the prospect of moving across the ocean can be overwhelming with the correct information, tools, and collaborators the process can go off without a hitch.
