Registering an EU CofA Aircraft in UK?

I'm in the process of looking for an aircraft it it is immediately obvious that the choice and amount of aircraft available grows significantly if you extend the search into Europe.

Whilst there is a lot of info on the Internet regarding US to EU import, I'm struggling to find much on what's involved in bringing say a D registered aircraft from Germany into the UK and getting it a G registration.

From what I have found (mainly from the CAP562) it would appear that so long as it is EASA CofA, and has a valid ARC in the country of origin, it is a paperwork only exercise with a fee of around £300 to get it UK registered and usable / maintainable in the same way as any aircraft you might buy in the UK.

Can anyone confirm, deny or inform on this? Somehow it just feels too simple to be right!

Many thanks for any input or clarification.
