Car tax, or vehicle tax as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, must be paid by every car owner. To calculate it, you need to multiply the vehicle tax rate in force in your area for a car of your capacity by the number of horsepower.
Instructions
Step 1
If you are an individual, you can simply wait for the tax office to calculate the tax for you, since the tax authorities themselves calculate the amount of tax for individuals. But it's better to do it yourself to avoid possible mistakes. To do this, first find out what the power of your car's engine is.
Step 2
Find legislation that regulates the payment of transport tax in your region, since the Tax Code sets only basic rates that can be increased or decreased by the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. In Moscow, the Law of the City of Moscow of 09.07.2008 N 33 "On Transport Tax" will come in handy. You can buy the latest version of the law in a bookstore or go on a weekday from 20.00 to 0.00 local time to the website of the Consultant Plus legal system (at this time it is available free of charge to any user). It is necessary to find the appropriate law in it.
Step 3
The law will indicate the tax rates for your region for cars of different engine power. Find the rate that suits you and multiply it by the car's engine horsepower. The resulting work will be the amount that needs to be paid.
Step 4
Example: You have a 110 horsepower car. You registered it in Moscow. According to the Law of the City of Moscow dated 09.07.2008 N 33 "On Transport Tax", the tax rate for such a car will be 20 rubles per 1 horsepower. Multiply 110 by 20. The resulting 2200 rubles will be the amount of tax payable.
