Taking vehicle out of Finland

Post by browndude » Tue Sep 14, 2021 2:20 pm

If one moves out of Finland temporarily for a few years to another EU country, are there any taxes or other fee that needs to pay if taking a fully owned vehicle that was purchased and registered in Finland?

Not sure about admin fees for ending registration.

For taxes you could even get money back (though would mean paying something again when coming back).

If you become a resident of EU country X then you'd need to register the car in country X if you want to drive it in country X because there's an EU wide law to stop people driving cars registered in other countries and managing to avoid local tax/registration laws.
