Is it worth importing a used Toyota Camry from the USA?
If you want the V6 or a specific well-kept example, yes — the US used market offers depth and configurations Europe never sold in volume.
Does this vehicle automatically qualify for a 0% import-duty rate?
No, not automatically. A 0% EU import-duty rate may be available for a vehicle covered by Regulation (EU) 2026/1455 that has US origin and is imported directly into the EU. CETA may apply to a vehicle with preferential Canadian origin. Whether the requirements are met is assessed for the individual case. Please contact USCar Trader before purchase; we review the possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support. Import VAT and other costs are assessed separately.
How is import VAT treated when importing a Toyota Camry?

Which Camry engine is most sought after?
The 3.5-litre V6, especially the 301 hp 2GR-FKS in the XV70 and the TRD variant, because no comparable European Camry exists.
Are US Camrys reliable enough to import?
Toyota Camry reliability is among the best in the class; the main variable is how well the individual car was maintained, which is why history checks matter.
What has to change for TUEV approval?
Usually headlights, a rear fog lamp and documentation adjustments such as odometer in kilometres; the exact list depends on model year.
How long does the whole import take?
Ocean freight and clearance typically span several weeks; the timeline depends on shipping schedules and the inspection appointment.
Can you check the car before I buy?
The assessment depends on the specific vehicle and the circumstances of the transaction. Please contact USCar Trader before purchase; we review any possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support. Import VAT and other costs are considered separately.
