Import Cars from China to France
France has become one of the more contested European markets for Chinese brands — MG and BYD already have real official sales momentum, and Chery has re-entered the European market with France among its priority markets. Importing directly from China's domestic market offers a further price advantage, with freight from $5,280 USD and 30–44 days transit to Le Havre, Marseille, or Dunkirk.
At DriveSino, we handle the entire export process from China to France — vehicle sourcing, multi-point inspection, export documentation, shipping, and EU homologation support.
Neden Çin'den France'e İthalat Yapmalı?
- Price advantage: direct import from China's domestic market offers a further price advantage even against France's existing official Chinese-brand dealer networks
- Wide model range: MG, BYD, Chery, and Geely offer sedans, SUVs, and EVs beyond what's currently distributed officially in France
- Multiple port options: Le Havre, Marseille, and Dunkirk all offer established vehicle-handling infrastructure
- Left-hand drive standard: France drives on the right, matching the LHD configuration Chinese manufacturers produce as standard
- Wholesale options for dealers: DriveSino offers competitive bulk pricing for French dealers and fleets

France için İthalat Vergileri ve Harçları
EU import duties and taxes apply to France. Current rates for vehicles from China:
- EU import duty: 10% of CIF value for passenger vehicles from China (standard MFN rate)
- Additional EV tariff: Chinese EVs may face additional tariffs under the EU's anti-subsidy investigation — currently up to 17-36% on top of the standard 10% duty
- VAT: 20% in France (TVA) on CIF value + import duty
- Total estimated taxes: approximately 30–51% depending on EV tariff status
- Note: France has also applied its own environmental bonus/malus system affecting new-vehicle purchase incentives — check current eligibility separately, as it's distinct from import duty
