- Who can import: Individuals and companies may import

- Glass light transmission ≥70%, EU-spec headlights
Rules and sources
- Iceland is outside the EU customs union: the EU countervailing duty on Chinese BEVs does not apply; under the China–Iceland FTA Chinese-origin cars are duty-free (certificate of origin required). VAT 24% (on landed value + excise) ↗ official 2026-09-20
- Vehicle excise vörugjald (Act 29/1993 Art. 3 as amended by Act 99/2025, from 2026-01-01): threshold 69→15 g/km, 0.28%→0.34% per gram, cap 65%→70%, minimum 5%→10%; cars running only on methane, electricity or hydrogen are exempt (government 2026 tax-change note: excise on electric cars abolished, minimum 10%, maximum 70%) ↗ official 2026-10-26
- From 2026-01-01 cars under 3.5 t pay a kilometre fee of ISK 6.95/km regardless of energy (a running cost, not collected at import) ↗ official 2026-10-26
- EEA member: cars from outside the EEA need a technical certificate (tæknivottorð) from an accredited technical service proving EEA emission and technical compliance; pre-registration (forskráning) with Samgöngustofa is required before customs clearance; Samgöngustofa fee schedule 1535/2025: new registration ISK 6,212, each plate ISK 6,736; VAT 24%, and registrable vehicles pay vörugjald, the recycling fee and VAT at clearance on the customs value (price + freight + transport insurance) ↗ official 2026-10-26
Outside the EU customs union, so the EU's 17–35% countervailing duty on Chinese EVs does not apply; Chinese-origin cars are duty-free. Excise follows CO₂: BEVs exempt, PHEV / range-extender default to 40 g/km (about 8.5%), petrol defaults to 150 g/km (about 46%, maximum 70%); VAT 24%. For a BEV, Iceland is one of the lowest-taxed destinations in Europe; petrol cars rarely make sense. Sea freight usually transships via Rotterdam, so it is on the high side.
