Importing a Lamborghini


Importing a Lamborghini to the Netherlands? Whether it’s a new Huracán, Aventador, Urus or a classic such as the Countach or Diablo, at SCL Rotterdam we ensure a smooth and seamless import process. For almost twenty years, we have assisted clients with the import of exclusive vehicles from Dubai, the United States, Japan and Italy.

Our services are fully tailored to the high-end segment. Whether you’ve purchased a supercar from a foreign dealer or need a vehicle transported discreetly and securely to a new destination in Europe, we make sure your Lamborghini is handled and delivered with the utmost care.

Why import a Lamborghini?

Lamborghinis are in demand worldwide for their striking design, raw performance and exclusivity. Abroad – especially outside Europe – you can often find special versions rarely offered in the Netherlands. Examples include:

  • Limited editions with unique color combinations or interiors
  • Low-mileage versions from Dubai or Japan
  • Classic models that are interesting as an investment or collector’s item

By importing, you gain access to a wider selection and often more favorable pricing. Through SCL Rotterdam, you can count on complete guidance from purchase to registration.

What’s involved in importing a Lamborghini?

Importing a Lamborghini involves more than just transport. Especially when importing from a non-EU country, several steps are required to ensure the car is legally and correctly registered in the Netherlands. We assist you with:

  • Purchase assistance and technical inspection
  • Transport by sea container or enclosed carrier, including insurance
  • Customs clearance, import duties and VAT (where applicable)
  • Conversion to European standards (if necessary)
  • RDW inspection or TÜV approval for registration in Germany
  • License registration, BPM calculation and ownership transfer

Everything is managed from a single point of contact. Learn more about importing a car.

Importing a Lamborghini from Dubai or Japan

Dubai is an attractive market thanks to its wide selection of luxury vehicles. Japan also offers unique editions and well-maintained cars, often with low mileage. In both cases, there are important considerations such as potential climate effects or differing specifications.

SCL Rotterdam works with local partners to assist with inspection, purchase and export preparation. We ensure your vehicle is transported safely and discreetly and imported correctly into the Netherlands.

Importing a Lamborghini from Italy

Because Italy is part of the European Union, importing a Lamborghini from there is relatively straightforward. There are no import duties or VAT, which keeps costs lower. We handle transport, document translation, BPM declaration and RDW registration.

Frequently Asked Questions about Lamborghini Import

In which country is a Lamborghini the cheapest?

The largest and often most competitively priced selection of Lamborghinis can be found in the Middle East, particularly in Dubai. The market there is extensive, and many vehicles are nearly new. However, a thorough technical inspection is essential due to potential wear or damage caused by the hot climate and sand. SCL Rotterdam works with local partners for inspection, transport, and import arrangements.

How can I import a Lamborghini from Italy?

Since Italy is part of the EU, the process is relatively straightforward. After purchase, we arrange transport to the Netherlands, RDW registration, and any required BPM declaration. There are no import duties or VAT to be paid. We handle the entire process from start to finish.

How long does it take to import a Lamborghini to the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe?

For imports within the EU, such as from Italy, the process usually takes 1 to 3 weeks. For imports from non-EU countries like the USA or Japan, the lead time is typically between 6 and 10 weeks. This includes shipping, customs clearance, inspection, and registration based on overseas transport. SCL Rotterdam ensures the process runs as efficiently as possible.

In some cases, air freight is a great alternative: by plane, we can deliver or collect vehicles almost anywhere in the world within just a few working days.

Which Lamborghini models are interesting to import?

Popular models include the Lamborghini Huracán, Aventador, Urus, and Gallardo. Classic models such as the Countach, Diablo, and Murciélago are highly sought after by collectors, especially when in original condition. We are happy to advise on availability and specifications across different markets.

Which documents do I need to import my Lamborghini?

You typically need a purchase invoice or sales contract, the original registration document or export certificate, and a Bill of Lading or other transport document. We assist with collecting and processing all necessary documentation.
