Jak legálně dovézt auto z Německa na Slovensko - krok za krokem

Buying a car in Germany is a smart way to save money and find a wider selection of vehicles.

But before you can enjoy your new ride in Slovakia, you need to bring it home legally and safely.

Here’s a complete step-by-step guide to help you through the process.


1️⃣ Find and Inspect the Vehicle

  • Research reputable dealers or private sellers and verify all ownership documents.
  • Check the car’s history using the VIN to avoid hidden damages or unpaid debts.
  • Make sure you receive a purchase contract and the German registration papers (Fahrzeugbrief and Fahrzeugschein).

2️⃣ Arrange Transit License Plates

To drive the car from Germany to Slovakia, you need valid transit plates.

The easiest and most reliable option is to rent Maďarské tranzitní poznávací značky from IVANZO.com.

Why Hungarian plates?

  • Fully legal for transport from any EU country to Slovakia
  • Ready within 24 hours
  • Include compulsory liability insurance (PZP) and motorway vignette

Tip: If you need to drive the car inside Slovakia before registration or pass technical inspections, you can later switch to Slovak transit license plates (C).


3️⃣ Drive the Car Home

  • Pick up or receive your transit plates (delivered conveniently via Packeta).
  • Secure all documents: purchase contract, insurance, and proof of ownership.
  • Drive safely to Slovakia, following EU traffic regulations.

4️⃣ Pass Mandatory Slovak Inspections

Once the car is in Slovakia, you’ll need to complete:

  • STK (technical inspection)
  • EK (emissions test)
  • KO (originality check)

Slovak transit plates (C) make it easy to attend all these checks legally.


5️⃣ Register the Vehicle in Slovakia

Finally, submit the necessary paperwork at your local traffic department:

  • Purchase contract and German registration papers
  • Proof of passed STK, EK, and KO
  • Proof of payment for Slovak registration fees

After approval, you’ll receive your permanent Slovak license plates.
