Hallo,

I will be in Iceland for a few months, and I wanted to ship in my Ford Excursion truck instead of renting one.  Are American plates legal on Icelandic roads?

Takk fyrir,

it´s no problem to get a driving permit on your car, you just have to talk to the custom office here and get a driving permit and prove that your here as a tourist not working in iceland. But if you are going to work here u have to get icelandic plates and pay money to the customs.

Best of luck, Ásgeir

I have been driving around for 8 weeks with dutch plates without any problem.
But Ásgeir is right, you should talk to the customs, if your staying at the one adress only.

Thanks guys!  I will just be on vacation as a tourist by myself, so I will contact the customs office for a permit.  One thing about this, there is no ferry like there is from Europe, so will have to ship my truck seperately and fly in.

Is there a IS website for 4x4s?  I'm trying to outfit my Excursion as much as I can to be prepared, and would like to see what is needed.  I run 37" tires, but I have seen pictures of little jap trucks with 44", so maybe I need more for highland roads, rivercrossings, snowfields, etc.
