No additional vehicle purchase tax is required for the transfer of a second-hand car. The main reason is that the vehicle purchase tax follows a one-time collection system, which should be completed when the original owner purchases the vehicle. Therefore, during the transfer of a second-hand car, the new owner only needs to request the tax payment certificate from the original owner. Here are some additional details: 1. The vehicle purchase tax is collected once: Once the vehicle purchase tax has been paid for a vehicle, it will not be levied again. 2. The vehicle purchase tax is collected by the State Taxation Administration: The tax must be paid in full at once. The taxpayer must present the tax payment certificate or tax exemption certificate issued by the competent tax authority to the vehicle management agency of the public security bureau for vehicle registration. Without the tax payment certificate or tax exemption certificate, the vehicle management agency will not process the vehicle registration. 3. When purchasing a second-hand car, the buyer should request the tax payment certificate from the original owner: The tax payment certificate consists of an original and a duplicate, issued per vehicle, with one certificate per vehicle. The original is kept by the owner, and the duplicate is used for vehicle registration.

Do 1K Paints Require Hardener?

1K paints do not require hardener. Here is additional information: 1. Hardener: Paint hardener is a specialized material used in paints to accelerate drying and enhance the drying speed. 2. Function: Paint curing occurs in two ways: one is physical drying, where the paint molecules react directly with oxygen in the air to achieve drying. The other is chemical curing, which involves combining components A and B to trigger a molecular reaction for drying. Component B is the hardener.

What are the differences between National V and National VI for trucks?

The differences between National V and National VI for trucks are: 1. Different emission limits; 2. Different prices: National VI vehicles are equipped with additional components compared to National V, and automobile manufacturers also incur extra costs from various tests for vehicle declaration and production, resulting in National VI vehicles being significantly more expensive than National V vehicles; 3. Different scrapping timelines. Additional information: 1. In regions like Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, etc., where National VI standards have not yet been implemented, National V vehicles can still be registered normally. After July 1, 2019, National V vehicles will mostly be unable to be registered in most parts of the country. If National VI standards have been implemented in your location, National V vehicles cannot be registered. If you want to purchase a National V vehicle, you need to determine based on the local real-time policies. 2. The national schedule for the first phase of National VI emission standards (National VI a) was originally set for July 1, 2020, but most regions in the country advanced it to July 1, 2019. It can be foreseen that for regions where National VI emission standards were not implemented on July 1, there is a possibility of advancing the implementation of National VI emission standards in the future.

How to Park in an Angled Parking Space?

Park the car on the right side of the parking space along the angled line, adjusting the vehicle to the appropriate position.
