How is the tax on used cars collected?
2 Answers
Used cars do not require payment of purchase tax again, and the normal transfer fee is around 300 to 500. Below is the relevant information: 1. Purchase tax: Used cars do not require payment of purchase tax. However, if the purchase tax was not paid when the car was new, the new owner will need to pay the purchase tax after the used car transaction. 2. Additional information: In real life, most car owners pay the purchase tax when buying a new car, but there are still individual cases where the purchase tax is not paid. Therefore, when purchasing a used car, consumers should not only thoroughly inspect the car's performance but also verify whether the purchase tax has been paid.
When it comes to used car taxes, it's a pretty common matter, generally divided into two parts: transaction tax and transfer fees. The transaction tax is a percentage of the sale price—2% in our area, so a 100,000 yuan car would incur 2,000 yuan in taxes. The key factor is the seller's identity—if you're buying from a private owner, most places exempt the tax, but purchasing from a dealer means you can't avoid it. Transfer fees are separate, covering hard costs like license plate processing and vehicle inspection, usually around 500 yuan. When signing the purchase contract, make sure to specify who bears the taxes and fees. It's advisable to check local policies in advance, as some cities have environmental restrictions on vehicle transfers, meaning older cars might not be eligible for transfer, leading to wasted effort.
