Exporting a car from the Netherlands to Sweden? Auto Export Document in Hengelo prepares all the Dutch documents a Swedish buyer needs before dealing with Sweden\'s vehicle authority. Swedish buyers appreciate the transparent history and sharp pricing of Dutch occasions, and specific models are simply cheaper to source in the Netherlands. We handle the RDW export certificate, deregistration and, for the long drive north, the export insurance and export plates in about 15 minutes.
Why export a car from the Netherlands to Sweden in 2026?
Sweden is a mature market where certain Dutch occasions - particularly well-equipped estates and hybrids - offer good value. Swedish buyers rely on the documented APK history and the straightforward Dutch registration paperwork, which makes the whole process predictable.
Sweden is an EU member, so there are no import duties on a Dutch car. Registration is handled by Transportstyrelsen (the Swedish Transport Agency); after import the buyer normally books a registration inspection (registreringsbesiktning) at Bilprovningen before Swedish plates are issued. Sweden does not use a high one-off registration tax like Denmark, which keeps the total cost lower.
The journey is long: roughly 1,250 km from Hengelo to Stockholm via Germany, Denmark and the \u00d8resund Bridge into Sweden. Many exporters extend the export insurance for the trip.
