Hi, I'm moving to Dubai in a couple of months and now I've got a couple of questions. (I've used the search and I've found out that cars can be imported to Dubai. ) However, what is the import duty one needs to pay? I've seen 4% somewhere. Is there anyone who would be able to confirm this? I have tw...

Where are the cars coming from? If they are LHD, you can forget it and leave them where they are, if RHD, then you are OK but may have to change one or two things if its not in KM's.

As said earlier I'm pretty sure it w...

Are there any issues if I'll purchase a car from say Abu Dhabi and want to drive it in Dubai?

Is it considered "importing" as well or do I just need to register the car to my name and get it inspected and I'm good to go?

Thanks so much - again

New rule is register where your visa/license is from. A few years ago, by fluke, I managed to get a 10-year Dubai license from a Sharjah visa (but I live in Dubai), so my car is Dubai reg. But this won't work any more apparently. OK so if I understood this correctly: a) I can buy a vehicle from ano...
