Why not just register it in Bulgaria?
Since Brexit a UK-registered car is a non-EU import. Here is what putting it on local plates actually involves — and why most owners sell it back to the UK instead.
- A UK car is a non-EU import: 10% customs duty (unless UK-built) and 20% VAT before registration.
- Right-hand drive can be registered, but needs headlamp adjustment and sells for less in Bulgaria.
- Once you are resident, the car must be registered with KAT; the UK registration lapses without an MOT and UK insurance.

Why Sellers in Bulgaria Choose Us
Well over a hundred thousand Bulgarians have lived in the UK, and a car on British plates is a common way to come home. Since Brexit that car is a non-EU import: customs duty and 20% VAT before the traffic police (KAT) will register it, then the ГТП inspection and headlamp adjustment for right-hand drive. British owners along the Black Sea coast at Varna and Burgas, or in the villages inland, are in the same position with cars they never re-plated.
We buy UK-registered cars in Bulgaria exactly as they stand — UK plates, right-hand drive, with or without an MOT — and return them to the UK trade, where they are worth more. Free collection from Sofia to the coast, all export paperwork handled, payment in pounds sterling (£) before the car leaves.
Free Collection Across Bulgaria
We collect right across Bulgaria — Sofia and Plovdiv, Varna and Burgas on the Black Sea coast, and the villages in between — within days of you accepting the offer. The car goes on a transporter north through Romania and Hungary to the Channel, and all export paperwork is completed by us.
Right-Hand Drive? No Problem
Bulgaria drives on the right, so a right-hand-drive UK car is a hard sell locally and usually goes cheaply. In the UK it is an ordinary car worth full market value — which is why we can offer UK trade prices.
We collect UK-registered vehicles from Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna and every town in between — all paperwork handled, and you're paid in pounds sterling (£) on the day of collection. Get your free, guaranteed valuation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to clear customs or register with KAT before selling?
No. We buy the car as a UK-registered vehicle and export it, so customs, VAT, the inspection and KAT registration are avoided entirely.
Can you pay into my UK bank account?
Yes — payment is in pounds sterling (£) by instant transfer while our driver is with you. A Bulgarian account is fine too; your bank converts the pounds, and a Revolut or Wise account usually gives a better rate.
How quickly can you collect my car?
We can typically arrange collection within 5-7 working days of you accepting our offer, depending on your location in Europe.
Are there any hidden fees?
Absolutely not. Our service is completely free to use and we cover all collection and administration costs — there are no fees or deductions at any point.
Is my offer final?
Every offer is subject to a short inspection when we collect the car, simply to confirm it matches the details and condition you described. If everything is as described, the offer stands.
How and when do I get paid?
You will be paid in pounds sterling (£) via a secure and instant bank transfer on the day of collection. Our driver will not leave with the vehicle until you have confirmed the funds are in your account.
Can you buy my car without an MOT or road tax?
Yes, absolutely. We specialize in buying cars regardless of their MOT or tax status.
I can't find my V5C (logbook). Can you still buy my car?
Yes, in most cases we can still purchase your vehicle. We handle all the necessary DVLA paperwork to confirm ownership. Please mention this when you fill out the form.
