The significant increase in vehicle tax has led most drivers to try to invent different methods to avoid paying it. So how do you reduce the tax burden on your four-wheeled friend?
Instructions
Step 1
Sell your old car and buy a car with a less powerful engine. If you are a resident of Moscow, then remember that the owners of cars with a power of less than 70 hp are exempted from paying transport tax. This approach to choosing a car will help you not only save on transport tax, but also reduce fuel costs during prolonged standing in traffic jams.
Step 2
Re-register your vehicle to a different region. Remember that tax rates vary widely from region to region. Therefore, you can significantly save your money if you have a trusted person in another region for which you can register the vehicle. Remember that the inspection will also have to take place at the place of registration of the car, and most likely to drive the vehicle under a general power of attorney. Therefore, carefully weigh the pros and cons before deciding on such a step.
Step 3
Take advantage of the benefit. If you are a hero of the Russian Federation or the Soviet Union or a holder of the Order of Glory, then you do not have to pay transport tax. Disabled persons of groups 1 and 2 are also exempted from transport tax if the engine power of their car is less than 100 horsepower.
Step 4
Remove the vehicle from the register and continue to operate it on transit numbers. In this case, the vehicle is not taxed. But keep in mind that after the transit numbers are expired, you will have to either spend time re-registering them, or pay an administrative fine if you are stopped by a traffic police inspector. Also, do not forget about the hijackers, for whom an unregistered car is a tidbit.
Step 5
Reduce the power of your car's engine. To do this, it is necessary to make changes to the design of the car, prepare and submit to the traffic police an application for changes in the design of the vehicle, documents from the car service where the work was carried out, as well as an opinion on the possibility of re-equipping the car. Next, it will be necessary to provide the vehicle for instrumental control at the traffic police. In case of positive instrumental control, you will be given a "Certificate of Design Compliance with Safety Requirements", after which the appropriate changes will be made to the TCP and the registration coupon.
