why

Belgium is one of the leading export countries of used cars in Europe. Many people from all over Europe have already purchased their car in Belgium, because of the excellent quality of used cars and the low prices compared to prices for cars in most European countries.
The Belgian car market also offers a very wide selection of top auto brands that no other country in Europe can offer. It's easy, because Belgian legislation makes it easy to export cars and to import them in to your own country. That is why Belgium is the N° 1 car market in Europe!

    EW Motors takes care of all formalities with the shipping agent and customs. We will also arrange for transportation of the car to the port of Antwerp, Zeebruges or Ghent, depending on the country of destiny.

taxes

The European Union has a special regulation for VAT (sales tax).
Here is how it works:
First check if you live in the European Union or outside the European Union.
If you are living in the European Union, check if you purchase the car as a private person or as a company/entrepreneur with a VAT number.

Look here for your situation:

Privat person NOT in European Union
NO
Company or person with VAT number European Union
