CO2 Exchange
Buy CO2 and save money on vehicle imports
When importing a vehicle into Switzerland, a significant CO2 levy may apply due to the CO2 Act. Depending on the vehicle and its CO2 emissions, this levy can amount to several thousand francs and significantly increase the vehicle price.
Through our CO2 Exchange, you have the opportunity to buy CO2 credits and thereby reduce the CO2 levy. This allows you to save a lot of money when importing a vehicle or buying a new car.
Our team supports you throughout the entire process – from calculating the potential CO2 levy to organizing the appropriate CO2 credits.
