Transport tax is a phenomenon that everyone who owns a car has to face. Every year the car owner receives a letter indicating the number to be paid. And such numbers do not always coincide with the expectations of the owner of the transport. Experts say that your own transport tax can be calculated in advance. In 2014, many motorists were disappointed - they received letters from the tax office with higher numbers than in previous periods. This is due to the fact that since 2013 the transport tax has been increased. Experts advise: you can avoid such surprises by calculating the tax yourself based on the available average indicators in the network.
It is necessary
- - calculator;
- - paper;
- - pencil;
- - vehicle registration certificate.
Instructions
Step 1
Remember that the amount of the tax directly depends on the power of the car's engine. You should also take into account the fact that for cars with a power of over 250 hp. lawmakers want to develop a different tax assessment scheme.
Step 2
Calculating tax is not so difficult. It is enough just to arm yourself with a calculator or a sheet of paper and a pencil. Self-calculation will allow you to pay the mandatory contribution to the state in advance. This will be an excellent option for those who are going to leave for the period when the "letter of happiness" comes and you need to pay tax.
Step 3
It should be borne in mind that from January 1, 2013, owners of cars with an engine over 410 hp should pay more. and the year of release after 2001. For them, the rate increased 20 times - from 15 rubles per horse to 300. The owners of the scooter were also affected by the change - from 5 to 25 rubles. The insidiousness of the transport tax is that these figures are not final. Municipalities are allowed to increase these rates at their discretion by a maximum of 10 times. For ordinary car enthusiasts with middle-class cars, the increase in tax revenue has become less global.
Step 4
When calculating the vehicle tax yourself, rely on the amount of horsepower that is registered in your vehicle registration certificate. So, for example, cars whose engine power barely reaches from 70 to 100 hp must pay 12 rubles. per horse. As a result, the annual cost of their tax is 840-1200 rubles. Cars with a capacity of 100-125 hp are estimated at a rate of 35 p. per hp and the cost for them a year will be 3500-4375 rubles. More powerful vehicles (which, by the way, are the majority on Russian roads) from 125 to 150 hp. will also cost the owners 35 p. per horse and at 4375-5250 p. per year. Cars with a capacity of 150-200 hp. are now estimated at 45 p. per hp For such a car, you will have to spend from 6750 to 9000 rubles per year. More powerful cars - from 200 to 250 hp now cost 75 rubles. per horse. The tax year for the owners of such cars will cost 15,000-18750 rubles.
