6.3 What are the rates in 2024?
Registration? Free. Bidding? Free. Customer support? Free. In fact, OPENLANE does not charge you anything unless you are successful in purchasing or selling a vehicle. A good deal? We think so.
If you do win an auction, certain mandatory fees apply. These include country-specific import fees, auction fees and fees for the related customs documentation. Please always remember to take these costs into account when calculating your bid.
The auction fee depends on how much you eventually pay for a vehicle. However, we guarantee high-quality personal service no matter how much you pay. For continental European customers, every vehicle purchased also incurs a country fee. The fee depends on which country the vehicle is sold in. You will always find it listed on the car details page.
Additionally, for a limited number of sellers, we charge extra costs. For full transparency, these appear under ‘Seller specific fee’ on the car details page. This is mainly applicable for sellers who are offering their vehicles exclusively on openlane.eu.
* Rates are applicable as from 01/01/2024.

For domestic transport, and vehicles or destinations for which OPENLANE does not offer a transport solution, the pickup fee will not be applicable.
