Importing a Chinese EV to France: 10% EU Duty, Brand CVD, and 20% VAT — and a Malus Layer Outside the Math

Importing a Chinese EV to France: 10% EU Duty, Brand CVD, and 20% VAT — and a Malus Layer Outside the Math

Importing a Chinese EV to France stacks the EU's 10% standard duty, a brand-specific countervailing duty (BYD 17%, Geely 18.8%, SAIC/MG 35.3%, most other exporters 20.7%), and 20% VAT — plus a registration line our model holds flat at $400. A BYD Seal lands at about $44,631 (+80.8%) in our 30-market records: $218 above Germany and $318 below the Netherlands. France is also a Stellantis home market that both competes with these imports and distributes Chinese-built cars.

Importing a Chinese EV to Spain: 10% EU Duty, Brand CVD, and 21% VAT in Europe's Volume-Price Hub

Spain applies the EU's 10% standard duty, a brand-specific countervailing duty of 17% to 35.3%, and 21% VAT, with a $110 registration line in our records. A BYD Seal lands at about $44,659 (+80.9%) — $246 above Germany, $458 below Italy and $1,231 below Sweden. Full stack, model by model, plus Plan Auto+, the MG Galicia plant and why Chinese brands are gaining fastest in this price-driven market.

Importing a Chinese EV to Italy: 10% Duty, Brand Countervailing Duties, and 22% VAT in Stellantis's Home Market

Importing a Chinese EV to Italy: 10% Duty, Brand Countervailing Duties, and 22% VAT in Stellantis's Home Market

Importing a Chinese EV to Italy stacks the EU's 10% duty with a brand-specific countervailing duty (BYD 17%, Geely 18.8%, SAIC/MG 35.3%, most others 20.7%) and 22% VAT — the highest VAT of the EU's four largest car markets. A BYD Seal lands at about $45,117 (+82.7%) in our 30-market records; a Leapmotor T03 at $20,021. Italy is also Stellantis's home market, which makes the import story unusual: the country's best-selling EV is distributed by Stellantis itself, and BYD has been in talks about underused Italian plants.
