Buying a car not only brings pleasant emotions and opens up wide opportunities for the vehicle owner, but also becomes a reason for reflection. For example, that you will have to pay tax on it. However, not all car owners pay the state for their iron horse. And before buying a car, you should carefully study the list of cars on which you can save.
The legislation has quite clearly defined which cars are subject to taxation. However, it should be understood that the amount of the tax to the treasury is calculated taking into account certain characteristics. The size of the tax depends on them.
The tax is also calculated depending on the territorial affiliation of the car. For example, in Moscow there is a provision according to which a number of cars are not subject to taxation.
Which cars are not taxed
The simplest answer to this is everything. In fact, there is a small part of transport, very small, but still there, which is exempt from taxation.
First of all, the owners of cars who have not registered their iron horse as it should be, do not pay the tax. If you have not visited the traffic police station specializing in the registration of cars, the car will not be listed in the database and, accordingly, tax will not be charged on it either.
It should be understood that you can not register your car. However, driving it through the streets is not. Driving by a car that does not have a state registration is already a serious offense.
In addition, small cars with an engine capacity of up to 1 liter are exempted from taxation. True, this rule does not apply everywhere. It is adopted at the level of regional authorities and remains at their discretion. Most of the municipalities prefer not to abandon the tax on a small car at all, but simply makes it much smaller.
Not subject to taxation are disabled vehicles specially equipped for them. As for all other vehicles, they are taxed. But here, too, there are a number of nuances.
Vehicle taxation system
Vehicle owners should calculate in advance the cost of their iron horse, based on the average cost of the "horse". So, for example, for cars up to 100 hp. the cost of 1 horse is 12 rubles. More powerful car owners - 100-150 hp. will have to pay 35 rubles. per hp Those who have a car of 150-200 hp need to cook 45 rubles. for 1 hp And the owner of a car with 200-250 hp will have to pay 75 rubles. for strength.
Owners of powerful cars, the power of which is from 250 hp, are in a special position. and higher. As a standard rate, they are assigned 150 rubles. per horse, but at the discretion of the regional authorities, this figure may grow.
