Importing a Porsche 911 Carrera from Germany into France
The Porsche 911 is the sports car icon par excellence. Importing a 911 from Germany can deliver significant savings, but the malus CO2 (CO2 tax) and the weight call for precise calculation.

The cost of importing a Porsche 911 Carrera: what it covers
The landed cost in France of a Porsche 911 Carrera 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 (1,530 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 Porsche 911 Carrera and gives you a GO/NO-GO verdict in seconds.
The Porsche 911 Carrera on the German market
The Porsche 911 Carrera is a petrol vehicle found on listing platforms such as mobile.de and AutoScout24. Its 1,530 kg does not exceed the weight tax threshold (1,800 kg under the 2023 rates, those of its year of first registration), which keeps the calculation simple.
Registering an imported Porsche 911 Carrera in France
Once bought and shipped, the steps are as follows:
- Quitus fiscal (tax clearance) from the SIE, the French business tax office, to be requested as soon as the vehicle arrives
- Certificate of conformity (COC): from Porsche, quoting the chassis number (VIN)
- French roadworthiness test (contrôle technique) if the vehicle is over 4 years old
- Carte grise (registration document) application on the ANTS portal, for permanent plates
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to import a Porsche 911 Carrera?
Purchase prices on mobile.de range from €90,000 to €120,000 for a 2023 with 10,000 to 30,000 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 €110,000 to €150,000.
Is the Porsche 911 Carrera worth importing?
Not at the midpoint of the ranges above: there the engine works out a landed cost of €140,165 against a €130,000 resale, a loss of €10,165. It only turns profitable when bought at the bottom of the range and resold at the top, so everything hinges on the price you negotiate, which the calculator lets you test.
What tax applies to a Porsche 911 Carrera?
At 224 g/km of CO₂ (WLTP) and 1,530 kg, the Porsche 911 Carrera is liable for the CO₂ tax but not the weight tax. The rates applied are those of 2023, its year of first registration, and an age-based reduction lowers the amount.
