Exporting aircraft or parts from Europe , any restrictions ?

No, not wreck recovered, so could be coming here for rebuild ………

If they are ‘wreck recovered’ I’d be very careful, and ensure you have paperwork/provenance confirming source, ownership/title etc.

These things are getting very tricky, or can be, at French or Belgian ports.

Plenty of curtainsiders coming from Esbjerg to Immingham.

….. and hope that no-one from any of the Scandinavian customs’ authorities reads this forum!

Thanks John

I was thinking along those lines……….

Put ’em in a truck, label them for repair.

Thank you TwinOtter23
I apreachate your help.

You might need to consider paperwork if they are from Norway, but it could be simpler from Denmark or Sweden. This is based on experience with Safir, Draken and Viggen imports respectively.

Ok, without being to cryptic, the items in question are 3 very well known engines formally built in Derby in the 1940’s……..

From a Scandinavian country…”……

Fair point. Maybe thedawnpatrol wishes to elaborate on his reference to ‘historic aircraft parts’?

Normally only if they are in the national interest.

Might there also be restrictions in the country where the historic artefacts currently are located on their export from that country?

It also depends what, there are obvious restrictions on certain military equipment and materials made from.

Best consult the HMRC website, it’s fairly clear.

Jules,

You need to be cautious about such movements, due to a number of factors.

Movements from on EU country to another EU country are relatively straight forward, assuming that the item was originally manufactured inside the EU.

Variations to these situations e.g. moving from EU country to a non EU country; or item manufactured outside EU can invoke tariffs, different rates of VAT etc.

Here’s weblink that I found helpful in 2015 when importing some aviation items from the southern hemisphere.

Nope. Do it before Brexit!
