FAQs
What documents do I need for motorhome' customs clearance?
For motorhome customs clearance, you’ll need the original vehicle registration document, proof of ownership (purchase invoice or contract), a valid passport or ID, and an EORI number for commercial imports. Additional documents include the vehicle’s conformity certificate (COC), insurance documentation, and customs declaration forms. If transporting from outside the EU, T1 transit documents may be required. PUREPROGRESS handles all document preparation and submission to customs authorities, ensuring complete compliance with European import regulations.
Do I need to pay VAT when shipping my motorhome?
VAT requirements depend on whether you’re importing for personal use or commercial purposes, and your country of residence. New motorhomes typically require full VAT payment in the destination country, while used vehicles may qualify for reduced assessments based on age and value. EU residents moving permanently may be eligible for VAT exemptions under transfer of residence regulations. PUREPROGRESS evaluates your specific situation to determine applicable VAT rates and identifies any available exemptions or reduced duty schemes to minimize your customs costs.
Is there any motorhome insurance?
Yes, all motorhome transports with PUREPROGRESS are covered by comprehensive cargo insurance throughout the entire journey. Our transport insurance protects your recreational vehicle against damage, accidents, theft, and unforeseen incidents during loading, road transport, and unloading. Coverage includes protection during customs clearance procedures and temporary storage if required. We work with specialized vehicle transport insurers who understand the unique requirements of motorhome shipping across European routes. Insurance documentation is provided before transport begins, and in the unlikely event of damage, our team manages the claims process directly with insurers. Additional coverage options are available for high-value motorhomes or specific requirements, ensuring complete peace of mind from pickup to delivery.
