In the current economic situation, most car enthusiasts want to save money on buying a car. Therefore, many are beginning to think about the possibility of driving a car from Europe. But is it possible not to overpay the ferryman, doubting the correctness of paperwork during customs clearance? You can, if you decide to go after the car yourself.
It is necessary
- - international class driver's license;
- - international passport;
- - visa;
- - currency bank card.
Instructions
Step 1
Obtain an international driver's license from the police (traffic police). This document is an addition to the driving license of a citizen of the Russian Federation or other CIS countries. It is required because you cannot drive a car abroad with a Russian license.
Step 2
Open a visa at the embassy of the state where you are going to get a car. Usually, documents submitted for opening a visa are considered from several days to a month. When the embassy makes a positive decision, a mark (seal) is put in the passport, which allows you to stay abroad.
Step 3
Apply for a currency card in any bank and put money on it, which should be enough for the trip (round trip), accommodation and the purchase of a car itself. Also, money will be needed to pay for customs clearance at the border.
Step 4
Select the car you are interested in. It is best to find several options at car dealerships and showrooms that are located close to each other. This will help save you time searching for the right vehicle. To do this, search the Internet for the largest car sales sites and consider several of the options offered.
Step 5
Determine the route along which you will drive your car. It should be laid out in advance in order to calculate the financial cost of fuel during the haul.
Step 6
Upon arrival at the car market or salon, carefully inspect the cars that you have chosen in advance on the Internet. If the car is maintained, then you should bargain a little.
Step 7
When the car is purchased, drive along the pre-mapped route. At the border, go through customs clearance - the older the car, the more you pay.
Step 8
Having driven the car to the territory of the Russian Federation, contact the local traffic police department to pay the duty and register the car with an inspection and obtain a state number plate.
