You need to have control over what the machine is, where it is to be sent, who the buyer is and what documents are required for the goods to leave Sweden correctly.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">If the machine is to be sent to a country outside the EU, an export declaration is normally required. This includes information such as the product code, value, weight, sender, recipient and which country the machine is to be exported to. When selling to another EU country, the process is often simpler, but you still need to have the invoice, VAT and transport documents in order.<\/p><p>Tullify helps companies plan their exports before the machine is shipped. We can help with the right documents, correct export documentation and practical guidance so that the export is smooth, correct and secure from the start.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f99f524 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f99f524\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0acc519 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0acc519\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/tullify.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/importera-maskiner.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-9902\" alt=\"export machinery\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0a9913 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d0a9913\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b193a1e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b193a1e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>What documents do I need for such an export?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/tullify.se\/exportdeklaration\/\">export<\/a> of machines, you normally need a clear commercial invoice, transport documents, information about the machine&#039;s commodity code, weight, value and origin. If the machine is to be shipped outside the EU, supporting documents for the export declaration are also needed.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The commercial invoice is one of the most important documents. It should show who is selling, who is buying, what the machine is, price, currency, delivery terms and where the machine is to be sent. The transport document shows how the machine is being shipped and may be needed for both customs handling and VAT reporting.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For some machines, technical documentation, serial numbers, CE documents, manuals or certificates may also be required. This is especially true if the machine is advanced, used, custom-built or is to be sold to a country with special import requirements. Tullify helps you collect the right documents and create the correct export documentation.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>How much does it cost to export machinery from an EU country?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">When you sell a machine from Sweden to another EU country, it is not normally a classic export in the customs sense. Goods can generally move freely within the EU, but that does not mean that the transaction is free of costs or requirements.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Important costs to consider are:<\/p><ul data-spread=\"false\"><li>Transport from Sweden to the recipient country<\/li><li>Loading and unloading<\/li><li>Insurance during transport<\/li><li>Any special transport<\/li><li>Document management<\/li><li>Checking VAT regulations<\/li><li>Any technical documentation<\/li><li>On-site installation or service<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For companies, VAT management is often an important part. When selling to a VAT-registered company in another EU country, the sale can in some cases be made without Swedish VAT, but then the right requirements need to be met. Tullify helps you understand what applies and ensures that the documentation is correct before the machine is shipped.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>How much does it cost to export machinery from a non-EU country?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">If a machine is sold from Sweden to a country outside the EU, more administration is normally required than when selling within the EU. You often need to factor in costs for export declaration, transport, insurance, terminal handling, special loading and any documents required by the recipient country.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The actual customs cost usually arises in the recipient country, as that country may charge import duties, VAT or other fees when the machine arrives. Who pays these costs depends on the agreement between seller and buyer, especially the terms of delivery used.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is therefore important to clarify the costs before the deal is made. A cheap sale can become expensive if the transport requires special vehicles, if documents are missing or if the recipient country has special regulations. Tullify helps you check the export requirements and prepare the right documentation.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>How big can the machines be?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">There is no simple limit on how large a machine can be to be exported from Sweden. However, size affects transport, cost and practical handling. A smaller machine can often be shipped as regular cargo, while a larger machine may require special transport.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">You need to check the length, width, height, weight of the machine and how it will be loaded. If the machine is very heavy or wide, the carrier may need to plan a special route, book special vehicles, arrange a crane or check which roads and terminals can handle the goods.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">From a customs perspective, it is not the size that determines whether the machine can be exported. What is important is what the machine is, what commodity code it has, what value it has and which country it is being shipped to. Tullify helps you get the export details in order before booking the transport.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>Who pays duty on the machines?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">When exporting from Sweden, it is important to distinguish between export handling and import costs in the recipient country. The exporter is often responsible for ensuring that the correct export documentation is in place, while the buyer in the recipient country is often responsible for import duties and local fees. However, this can change depending on the delivery terms.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This should always be checked before the machine is sold:<\/p><ul data-spread=\"false\"><li>Who is the exporter?<\/li><li>Who is the importer in the recipient country?<\/li><li>What delivery terms apply?<\/li><li>Is shipping included in the price?<\/li><li>Are customs and local fees included?<\/li><li>Who is responsible for insurance?<\/li><li>Who books the transport?<\/li><li>Who handles the export declaration?<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">If this is not clear, misunderstandings, delays and additional costs can arise. Tullify helps you sort out the division of responsibilities and create a clear export plan so that both sellers and buyers know what applies.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>How does VAT work when exporting machinery?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The VAT depends on whether the machine is sold to another EU country or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skatteverket.se\/foretag\/moms\/saljavarorochtjanster\/forsaljningtilllanderutanforeu\/saljavarortilllanderutanforeu.4.361dc8c15312eff6fd3723b.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">to a country outside the EU<\/a>. When selling to a company in another EU country, Swedish VAT is often not charged, if the buyer is VAT registered and other requirements are met.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">When exporting to a country outside the EU, the goods are often sold without Swedish VAT, but you need to be able to show that the goods have actually left the EU. Therefore, the export declaration, transport documents and invoice are important documents for accounting and VAT reporting.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is important not only to remove the VAT but also to have the correct documentation. If the documentation is incorrect or missing, there can be problems during inspection. Tullify helps you to produce the correct export documentation and ensure that the VAT issue is handled correctly along with the other documents.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>Do the machines have to have the CE marking?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Machinery sold or put into service within the EU normally needs to meet EU safety, health and environmental requirements. The CE marking shows that the machinery meets the relevant requirements and may be sold on the EU market.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">If you are exporting a machine from Sweden to another EU country, CE marking is often very important. This is especially true if the machine is to be resold, installed or used in a business. Documents such as declaration of conformity, manuals and technical documentation can also be important.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">If the machine is to be exported to a country outside the EU, different regulations may apply. Some countries accept CE marking as part of the documentation, while others require local approvals or special certificates. Tullify can help you with the export documentation and guide you on which documents should be checked.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>We help you with the entire export and all documents<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Exporting machinery can be administratively burdensome, especially when it comes to large values, heavy transport or sales to countries outside the EU. There are many parts that need to be right for the machine to be shipped without unnecessary problems.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Tullify can help you with:<\/p><ul data-spread=\"false\"><li>Export declaration<\/li><li>Commercial invoice<\/li><li>Product code<\/li><li>Document control<\/li><li>VAT basis<\/li><li>Transport-related tasks<\/li><li>Control of recipient country<\/li><li>Advice on the export process<\/li><li>Dialogue on responsibility and delivery terms<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The goal is to make exporting easier, clearer and safer. You send us the documentation, and we help you check what is needed and how the export should be handled. Tullify helps companies avoid unnecessary delays, incorrect information and inadequate documentation.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>Which machines am I not allowed to export?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Most common machines can be exported, but there are important exceptions. Some machines may be subject to export restrictions, sanctions, licensing requirements, or special regulations depending on what the machine can be used for and which country it is being shipped to.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This may apply, for example, to machines with military use, advanced technology, dual-use products, or machines to be shipped to countries, companies, or individuals subject to sanctions. There may also be special requirements if the machine contains hazardous substances, advanced electronics, or components subject to export controls.<\/p><p>Therefore, it is important to check the export before the machine is sold or shipped. Tullify helps you identify what information is needed and if the export requires additional control. This reduces the risk of the goods being stopped, delayed or handled incorrectly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hur exporterar jag en st\u00f6rre maskin fr\u00e5n Sverige?
