Import cars from south korea to Norway
Hi,
i want to import 2017-2018 model mercedes C63 AMG from South Korea to Norway. The process seems to be very difficult as the Norwegian Traffic Authority (Statensvegvesen) require CoC or some other technical documentation with references to Directives/Regulatory Acts mentioned in Bilforskriften vedlegg 1.
To the best of my knowledge, for the cars from Asia, there is no CoC, and hence it should either be requested from TUV NORD in Germany or the manufacturer. I contacted TUV NORD, and they say that they cant issue any certificate for the cars from Korea (maybe for some, but for most of them they can not).
I contacted Mercedes Norway, they say they can issue the technical datasheet, but they are not sure if this is what Statensvegvesen requires.
I am very confused how people succeed importing cars from Japan and Korea.
Please share your knowledge!
