How much purchase tax does an individual need to pay for a new car?
2 Answers
An individual needs to pay a purchase tax of 10% of the vehicle's price for a new car. Here is the relevant information about the purchase tax: 1. Vehicle purchase tax: The vehicle purchase tax is calculated based on the taxable price of the vehicle purchased for personal use, which includes all payments made to the car dealer and additional fees, excluding VAT. 2. Laws and regulations: The vehicle purchase tax is a mandatory tax for purchasing a vehicle. All vehicle owners within the country, whether individuals or collective units, must pay the vehicle purchase tax. According to the new purchase tax law, the vehicle purchase tax is levied at a standard rate of 10%. The tax is calculated based on the taxable price, which includes all payments made to the dealer and additional fees, excluding VAT.
Calculating the purchase tax is actually quite simple. When I bought my car, I checked it out. The purchase tax for a new car is calculated based on the car's price, roughly around 8.85% of the car's price. For a 200,000-yuan car, the tax would be approximately 17,600 yuan. It's paid when you pay for the car or before registering the car, collected by the government. The calculation formula is the car price divided by 1.13 and then multiplied by 10%, because the 13% VAT is already included in the car price. First-time car buyers often get confused—don't directly multiply the full price by 10%, as that would overcalculate. When choosing a car, you can consider new energy models, such as pure electric vehicles, which are completely tax-exempt in many places, saving you a significant amount. Don't forget to include the tax in your budget—the car dealer salesperson will help clarify it for you. Asking friends for their experiences will make it even more reliable.
