Importing a Nissan Qashqai 1.3 DIG-T from Germany into France

The cost of importing a Nissan Qashqai 1.3 DIG-T: what it covers

The landed cost in France of a Nissan Qashqai 1.3 DIG-T imported from Germany is not just the purchase price. You need to add VAT (if the vehicle counts as new for tax: under 6 months old or under 6,000 km), the CO₂ tax, no weight tax (1,420 kg does not exceed the 1,800 kg threshold of the 2023 rates), transport from Germany, the certificate of conformity (COC) and the French registration document (carte grise).

Our free calculator works out every one of these items automatically from the specifications of your Nissan Qashqai 1.3 DIG-T and gives you a GO/NO-GO verdict in seconds.

Purchase prices on mobile.de range from €18,000 to €25,000 for a 2023 with 25,000 to 50,000 km. On top of that come the tax costs (CO₂ and weight tax, registration) and logistics (transport, COC), which the calculator works out precisely. Resale prices in France range from €22,000 to €29,000.
