Dodge Trucks from the USA — 0% duty or 10%
Zero duty is a property of one car, not of the Dodge Trucks as such. An American line means 0% duty and a lower 23% VAT base; a line outside the States means 10%. Manufacturers run parallel production on several continents, so two cars from one model year can clear differently.
Where is the Dodge Trucks assembled?
Production of the Dodge Trucks is often spread across continents, which is why the question of where it is built has several answers at once. For duty, only the country of the plant your car came off matters: the States mean 0%, any other country 10%. Model history and target market change nothing.
| Plant | Country | VIN prefix | Cars in our database | Duty |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Warren | United States | 1B7 | 8 | 0% duty |
| Mexico City | Mexico | 3B7 | 1 | 10% |
Made in USA • Tax 0%
How do you check a specific car?
The quickest filter is the first three characters of the number — on a Trucks with American assembly that is usually 1B7. A filter is not proof, though: we check the plant tied to the full VIN, because only that answers the condition. The check runs in seconds and costs nothing.
How much will you save?
Run it down both routes, because the Trucks exists on both: a car from an American line at 0% duty, a car from a plant outside the USA at 10%. The rest of the bill is identical — excise by engine size and 23% VAT. The calculator shows both versions from the same inputs.
Work out the import costWhat the import cost is made of
Three tax lines and one variable. Duty follows the assembly country of your Trucks: 0% for an American line, 10% for any other. Excise goes by engine size — 3.1% or 18.6%. VAT at 23% is worked out last, on customs value with duty and excise added.
| Component | Rate |
|---|---|
| Duty — car assembled in the USA | 0% |
| Duty — everything else | 10% |
| Excise | 3.1% up to 2.0 l, 18.6% above 3.5 l |
| VAT | 23% |
Rates, not amounts — the calculator works the sum out on current data.
Zero-duty paperwork — our job
Proof of origin and clearance are on us. For a Trucks that the VIN places on an American line, we assemble the plant documentation and declare the car at the 0% rate. What we need from you is the car you picked and its VIN.
What to watch for when buying at auction
An auction description talks about damage, not about origin, and the other way round. A Trucks with a wrecked front can be assembled in the USA and come in at 0%, while an untouched car from the same sale comes from Mexico and pays 10%. Check both separately.
| Damage | Cars in our database |
|---|---|
| Front end | 3 |
| Rear end | 2 |
| All over | 1 |
From the USA or from Europe?
The difference comes down to what you add and what you get back. Buying a Trucks in Europe, you skip the ocean crossing and the clearance; buying in the States you add both, but on a car from an American line duty is 0% instead of 10%. Your choice depends on how much paperwork and repair you take on.
