Can I Delay Paying the Purchase Tax When Buying a Car?

[LaEsther]

You can delay paying the purchase tax when buying a car. According to the latest Vehicle Purchase Tax Law: taxpayers must declare and pay the vehicle purchase tax within 60 days from the date the tax obligation arises. Ways to pay the purchase tax: 1. Local tax service hall: Taxpayers can go to the local tax service hall and apply to pay the vehicle purchase tax at the relevant counter (bring the original car purchase invoice, the tax copy of the car purchase invoice, the original and a copy of the product factory certificate, the owner’s ID card and a copy, and the tax declaration form). 2. Proxy service: Pay a certain service fee and have the 4S store staff handle it on your behalf.
