EUR.1 Export

With a valid EUR1 document you can save on customs duties when importing your car into a different country, as long as the country is party to the free trade agreement. For example, if you drive your car from Switzerland to an EU or EFTA country, or to Albania, North Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, or Bosnia-Herzegovina, you can save on customs duties when importing it into these countries. In the EU, you can save 10% of the value of your car.

The car must have been produced in an European Union or EFTA country. Unfortunately, if your car was not produced in an EU or EFTA country, you cannot order an EUR1.

You also need an export customs declaration (Edec) for Swiss customs. However, this is already included in your order at eur1-export.ch. You must also be able to prove that your car was produced in an EU country, for this you need proof of origin. A certificate of origin from the manufacturer serves as proof of origin. If you do not have proof of origin, you can obtain this from the vehicle manufacturer in most cases. If you wish, we can help you obtain a certificate of origin (additional costs apply). Depending on the destination country, customs may require a transit document, also known as a T1. If this is the case, you can have this done directly at the border, or we can set it up for you at extra cost. When exporting, Swiss customs may also require an export invoice, a vehicle registration document, a passport, or an ID. We also recommend that you check the requirements in the destination country (country into which you are importing the vehicle) and the transit regulations for your specific case.

If you make an express order, the price for your EUR1 documents is CHF 180. If you make a standard order the cost is CHF 150.

Make an express order. You will then receive your EUR1 in the mail the next day. If you need it even faster, you can pick up the EUR1 yourself at our office in Basel on the same day.

Unfortunately, ordering is not possible at the moment. We apologize for any inconvenience.

You can pay in cash, by TWINT or by e-banking. Please note that we can only send the documents after receipt of payment.

It depends on the value of the car and the regulations in the destination country. In a country member of the European Union, you can save 10% of the total value. Please contact customs in your country of destination for more details.
