Transport to Basel: Short Route, Clear Steps

Basel is where Germany, France and Switzerland meet. Pharma and chemical groups, the Rhine port and the trade fair shape the economy, and many cars from Germany cross the border here. We deliver in Grossbasel and Kleinbasel, and to Riehen, Binningen, Muttenz and Pratteln.

From south-west Germany a vehicle is often there within a working day; from the north and east it is usually two. The short distance does not change the customs side: the car leaves the EU on an export declaration and is cleared for Switzerland. We time the crossing to keep waiting short.

From a German Pick-Up Point to the Basel Border and Beyond

A large share of vehicle traffic between Germany and Switzerland passes through Basel. For you that means short journey times, but also a busy customs post. Arrive without complete papers and you can quickly wait longer than planned.

So we clarify beforehand what customs wants to see, obtain the export papers and have the levies settled through a customs broker. After that the car goes straight to your address in Basel-Stadt or Basel-Landschaft. Our customers include private individuals importing a car as well as dealers who bring stock across the border regularly.
