Duty on a Rivian from the USA: 0% or 10%
Rivian reaches us with two kinds of origin: 1,333 cars in our database carry an American assembly plant on record, the rest a European, Mexican, Canadian or Asian one. The first group catches 0% duty, the second 10%. No model name settles this — you need the VIN.
Which Rivian models are assembled in the USA?
Most US-assembled Rivian cars reach us from the plant in Normal. The same range also holds cars from lines outside the States: those enter the EU at 10%, while cars from American plants catch 0%.
How do you check a specific car?
How much will you save?
Zero duty takes 10% of customs value off the bill and shrinks the base that 23% VAT is charged on. Excise stays put: 3.1% on smaller engines and 18.6% on large ones. For a particular Rivian, let the calculator produce the figure — the rates are fixed, the customs value is not.
Work out the import costZero-duty paperwork — our job
We handle customs from end to end. A Rivian with an American assembly plant is declared under the preference in force since 2026-07-01; every other car goes in at the standard 10% rate. Which documents are needed follows from the car's own data, not from the seller's description.
