2.When the vehicle has passed the inspection, you must ask for a valuation of the vehicle in the Danish Register of Motor Vehicles (Motorregisteret) in SKAT’s self-service system E-tax (TastSelv). Log on to E-tax for individuals (TastSelv Borger) at skat.dk/tastselv using your NemID. Write in the message box that you have moved to Denmark, or that your vehicle has foreign number plates.

3.When SKAT has received your message, we will send you a receipt by post to keep in your vehicle. The receipt will entitle you and your household to drive with foreign number plates in Denmark until SKAT has calculated the registration tax payable.

4.SKAT will then assess the value of your vehicle and determine the registration tax to be paid.

5. You will receive SKAT’s valuation in E-tax under the heading ‘Meddelelser fra Motorregistret’ (Messages from the Register of Motor Vehicles).

6. You pay the registration tax in one of SKAT’s four motor registry offices.

7. When you have paid the registration tax, you can buy the number plate from one of SKAT’s motor registry offices or from an authorised number plate operator. The price of one set of number plates is DKK 1,180 + DKK 200 for buying the number plates in person.

How to ask for a valuation in the Register of Motor Vehicles

When the vehicle has passed the inspection, you must ask for a valuation of the vehicle in the Danish Register of Motor Vehicles (Motorregisteret) in SKAT’s self-service system E-tax (TastSelv).:
** Log on to E-tax for individuals (TastSelv Borger) at skat.dk/tastselv using your NemID.
** Select ‘Motorregistret’ (Register of Motor Vehicles) -> ‘Registreringsafgift’ (Registration tax) -> ‘Anmod om værdifastsættelse’ (Ask for a valuation).
** Write in the message box that you have moved to Denmark, or that your vehicle has foreign number plates.
** The E-tax system is only available in Danish, and we therefore advise you to log on together with a person who understands Danish.

SKAT will then assess the value of your vehicle and the registration tax to be paid based on the vehicle’s market price, inclusive of registration tax, if sold to a person in Denmark. This price will be compared to the vehicle’s price as new and loss in value.

I do not have NemID:
If you do not have a Danish civil registration number (CPR number) and NemID, you must send an e-mail to motorcenter@skat.dk in which you ask for a valuation of your vehicle in order for SKAT to calculate the registration tax payable. Please write that your vehicle has foreign number plates.
