Importing a Peugeot


Looking to import a Peugeot to the Netherlands? At SCL Rotterdam, we make it happen without the hassle. Peugeot is officially available in the Netherlands, but the Dutch market does not always offer the best selection. A sharper price via France or Germany, an RCZ or 508 SW in a specification no longer available here, or an iconic 205 GTI in good condition: we handle the entire import process from A to Z.

Why import a Peugeot?

In France and Germany, the same Peugeot models are often more competitively priced or better equipped than in the Netherlands. Certain models such as the RCZ, the 508 SW and the 207 RC have not been available new here for years but can be found elsewhere as used cars. In China, Peugeots are built with additional equipment and sometimes larger body variants that were never shipped to Europe. And for enthusiasts of Peugeot's rich motorsport heritage, classics such as the 205 GTI, the 306 Rallye and the 106 Rallye are reason enough to look abroad: in good condition, they are rare in the Netherlands.

Why choose SCL Rotterdam as your Peugeot importer?

Full service, everything under one roof

At SCL Rotterdam, we combine over 15 years of import experience with a practical approach. Our service covers not just the transport, but also the complete customs clearance, storage and any technical modifications in our own workshop. One point of contact, no fuss.

Experience with European and intercontinental imports

Support with purchase and modifications

Have you not yet found your Peugeot? SCL Rotterdam offers professional purchase guidance. We help you find the right car and can arrange a check before it goes on transport. Peugeots from the EU generally already comply with European standards. Chinese variants sometimes require modifications for European roads. Our workshop handles that expertly.

Cost of importing a Peugeot

For a Peugeot from France or Germany, import costs are low and the process is quick. For models from outside the EU, more steps are involved. You can request a no-obligation quote for an exact price. Transparent and no hidden costs.

Transport options for your Peugeot

Container transport and Roll-on/Roll-off transport (Ro-Ro)

For a Peugeot from Europe, road transport by truck is often the most efficient option. For models from further away, we offer container transport and Roll-on/Roll-off transport. For rare or restored classics, container transport is always our preference. We always recommend transport insurance, which we can arrange on your behalf.

Global ports and speed of delivery

We import vehicles from ports all over the world. Whether your Peugeot is coming from France, Germany, China or elsewhere, we arrange the transport to Rotterdam. Our experience with these routes ensures your car arrives quickly and safely.

Advantages of SCL Rotterdam

Own storage facilities and fast customs clearance

We have our own facilities for safe storage and keep the entire customs process in-house. That makes the procedure significantly faster. Our full service package also includes Dutch registration and tax declaration, using a favourable calculation method to keep the tax liability as low as possible.

What to watch out for when importing a Peugeot

Conversion tips

Peugeots from EU countries generally already comply with European standards and are straightforward to register. Chinese variants may differ in terms of lighting, emissions requirements and safety equipment. Classic Peugeots sometimes require extra attention during the RDW inspection. Our workshop carries out all necessary conversion to European standards with precision.

Purchase inspection

Whether it is a 205 GTI or a recent 508 SW, an inspection is always a wise move. Our specialists make sure you know what you are buying before the car goes on transport. Visit our purchase inspection page for more information.

Payment service

We also offer a payment service so you can handle the purchase of your Peugeot safely and without complications. This gives you extra certainty that the transaction goes smoothly.
