Importing a Motorhome from the UK to New Zealand
If you are planning to buy a motorhome in the UK, you're going to have to pay import duty and GST, which is approximately 15% of the price of the motorhome shipping. This duty is paid in New Zealand by the purchaser, and it's calculated based on the motorhome's price in the UK. Luckily, you can get a waiver from these charges depending on your circumstances and the intended use of the motorhome.
Before you ship your motorhome, you'll have to meet all the
necessary biosecurity requirements. In New Zealand, it's important to check
whether pests are present and if you'll need to fumigate the motorhome before
shipping. This can vary depending on the time of year, and where the motorhome
will be shipping. For more information, read the Biosecurity Act.
You'll be saving money when you choose a new motorhome from
the UK. Because you'll be using it for up to three months, you'll be eligible
for a 20% depreciation allowance. You'll also save money on GST and duty if
you're using it for business purposes. This tax break is especially valuable if
you're looking to travel in your Motorbike Shipping, or take it on holiday.
There are several types of concessions that you may be able
to obtain in New Zealand. If your motorhome is not owned by a company, you'll
be required to pay Customs duty and GST on it on a pro rata basis. If you're
trying to buy it for personal use, you'll have to make sure it's registered in
NZ with the manufacturer. If you're going to sell it in New Zealand, you'll
have to register it in New Zealand with Fiat.
When you purchase your motorhome, you should make sure you
have all the paperwork in place for export. You can do this yourself or hire a
freight forwarding company to take care of it for you. However, you must
remember that you'll be dealing with people you don't know until after you've
made a decision. You can also read customer reviews and observe motorhome
forums online.
Before you make the final decision, consider whether you can
afford the cost of importation. It's likely to cost you NZD5000-NZD9000,
depending on the size and type of motorhome. Obviously, you'll have to register
and insure the vehicle in New Zealand before you can use it. There are many
advantages to doing so. The costs are significantly lower than those of
shipping to the UK.
In addition, it's important to know that diesel-powered
vehicles will incur an additional mileage charge. This charge is called Road
User Charges and is payable in New Zealand at the Post Office. Nevertheless,
this administrative cost is not worth sacrificing the quality of the vehicle.
In addition to importing your motorhome from the UK, you should also be aware
of the import regulations in New Zealand.
In addition to the VAT, motorhome importers should be aware
of a number of other requirements. Those that are permanent movers can benefit
from a GST waiver. Those who have purchased motorhomes in the UK should
consider registering them in their home country before importing them into New
Zealand. A motorhome is usually inspected by Customs when it arrives in the
country, and the owner must provide all the necessary documents for customs
clearance.
Choosing a motorhome is a big decision. Some types are easier
to import than others. For a couple, a Toyota Town Ace is the most convenient
vehicle. It is spacious and self-contained, and comes with a kitchen, although
it's located in the back of the campervan. Other models like the Toyota Serena
and Nissan Noah are larger and are more expensive than a typical backpacker
campervan.
There are also some restrictions regarding the height of the
motorhome. For example, the Nissan Caravan is LWB, while a Toyota Hi ace is HT.
These have different height limits and may not fit in many car parks in New
Zealand. The LWB version isn't an issue, but the HT version might have trouble
fitting into a normal parking space.
