Bring In Your Car to Switzerland with Crypto | Bitmalo

Getting cars from anywhere in the world with a complete logistics service where we handle everything. At Bitmalo, you pick your car and pay; we sort out the inspection, buying, sending off, shipping, Swiss customs (BAZG) clearing, and even drop it off at your door anywhere in the country. Cars for our clients usually come in through EU seaports with special customs arrangements (like Antwerp/Zeebrugge, Rotterdam) by sea, and Zürich (ZRH) and Geneva (GVA) by air. If needed, we can sort out other entry points. Once customs lets go, we arrange for safe, covered delivery to your final stop across all cantons.

How it works (we handle it in 4 steps)

  1. Choose your ride – Go to Cars and message Bitmalo.
  2. Ask for an inspection (paid separately) – We check the VIN/variant, emissions, and all the gear, and then give you a report on its condition, ready for Switzerland, and all the necessary papers.
  3. Give the go-ahead & buy – If you're happy, pay 100% upfront (crypto USDT/BTC/ETH or bank USD).
  4. Transport & Drop off – We sort out air or sea transport with full insurance, handle the BAZG customs clearing and all arrival costs, and drop it off right at your place anywhere in Switzerland.

How to pay & when things happen

  • Inspection fee – pay upfront to get started (no deposit needed).
  • Buying the car – 100% upfront (crypto or bank).
  • Import customs & arrival charges – we pay these through our agent/broker first, then bill you back (crypto or bank). We'll send you an early heads-up with the estimated arrival time at your chosen EU seaport or Swiss airport and when to expect delivery.

Heads up on taxes & other costs: Switzerland usually charges automobile tax (Automobilsteuer) 4%, import VAT (8.1%), and if it applies, customs duty (as per the tariff), plus handling charges. When you register, expect cantonal fees and maybe a CO₂ charge depending on your car's details.

  • Emissions & equipment – Checking its Euro emissions class; km/h speedometer, rear fog light/indicator colour, and lights checked for driving on the right side of the road.
  • Making sure your papers are in order – VIN/chassis details, bill of sale, export title/registration, and translations that meet the BAZG/ASTRA/cantonal standards.
