The Greek government has several important requirements for imported cars. While OPENLANE is committed to supporting professional car traders in exporting vehicles, it is challenging to ensure that all our vehicles comply to every import regulation of the different countries in our market. However, we are still continuously improving the availability of vehicle information and documentation. Here’s what we are helping you with today:
• Validity of the technical inspection: For some cars the validity date of the technical inspection is readily available on our website. You can find it on the car description page under “Condition”.
For cars where this information is not stated on our website, we advise you to consult the following resources:
- Belgian cars older than 4 years- Dutch cars older than 3 years *
- Italian cars older than 4 years
- French cars older than 4 years – the information regarding the validity of the technical inspection is not available
- German cars older than 3 years – if available, the technical inspection validity is always mentioned on our website.
- Swedish cars
* IMPORTANT: For the majority of Dutch vehicles older than 3 years OPENLANE provides German vehicle documents. In this case, the German technical inspection document is not issued.
• Availability of the technical inspection document: currently this document is not mandatory for exporting cars. OPENLANE provides this document only if we receive it from the Seller.
• EURO Norm: OPENLANE provides all the information regarding the emission standard received from the seller or from an external database. We advise you to consult another source to acquire the exact information regarding Euro 5a and Euro 5b.
If you still have questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
