MAEHH,
You will have all the same hoopla with local Permits to Fly in UK ( and most western EC countries are worse) regardless of what register it is on, if it doesn't have a Standard cat. C.of A.
If you are acquiring the aircraft anywhere in Europe, take advice as to which register is the best of the EASA countries, and put it in VH- when you come home.
Tootle pip!!
