Why not just register it in Latvia?
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 21% VAT before CSDD registration.
- Right-hand drive can be registered but needs headlamp adjustment and sells for less in Latvia.
- Once you are resident the car must go onto Latvian plates; the UK registration lapses without an MOT and UK insurance.

Why Sellers in Latvia Choose Us
Tens of thousands of Latvians have worked in the UK, and many come home with the car they bought there. Since Brexit that car is a non-EU import: customs duty and 21% VAT before CSDD will register it, then the technical inspection and headlamp adjustment for a right-hand-drive car. For an older car, the taxes and the low resale value of right-hand drive in Latvia make registration a poor deal.
We buy UK-registered cars in Latvia exactly as they are — UK plates, right-hand drive, with or without an MOT — and take them back to the UK trade. British residents in Riga or Jūrmala who never re-plated get the same: free collection, all export paperwork handled, payment in pounds sterling (£) before the car leaves.
Free Collection Across Latvia
We collect across Latvia — Riga and the surrounding region, Daugavpils in Latgale, Liepāja on the coast — within days of you accepting our offer, and the car travels back to the UK on a transporter through Lithuania, Poland and Germany. Export paperwork is all handled by us.
Right-Hand Drive? No Problem
Latvia drives on the right, so a right-hand-drive UK car is a hard sell locally and rarely fetches a fair price. In the UK it is a normal car, and that is where we sell it — which is why we can offer UK trade value.
We collect UK-registered vehicles from Riga, Daugavpils, Liepāja 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 CSDD first?
No. We buy the car as a UK-registered vehicle and export it, so customs, VAT, the technical inspection and CSDD 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, and a UK account is the simplest way to receive it. A Latvian account is fine too; your bank converts the pounds.
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.
