According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" and relevant laws and regulations, there are subsidies for scrapping. The standards are as follows: 1. Scrapping heavy-duty trucks: a subsidy of 18,000 yuan per vehicle. 2. Scrapping medium-duty trucks: a subsidy of 13,000 yuan per vehicle. 3. Scrapping light-duty trucks: a subsidy of 9,000 yuan per vehicle. 4. Scrapping mini trucks: a subsidy of 6,000 yuan per vehicle. 5. Scrapping large passenger vehicles: a subsidy of 18,000 yuan per vehicle. The following is a related introduction: The motor vehicle scrapping system: It is one of the important systems in China's motor vehicle management, which is conducive to ensuring the quality and safety of motor vehicles. This is one of the specific manifestations of safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the people in public transportation.
I've been driving for over a decade and have personally experienced the process of getting subsidies for scrapping old vehicles. Generally speaking, when subsidies are available, it's the government's way of phasing out polluting old cars. Take my Euro II emission standard Santana for example - when it reached its 15-year scrappage limit, I took it to a designated recycling center, filled out the scrappage certificate, then applied for the subsidy online. The process was straightforward, and I received 5,000 yuan in about two weeks. Subsidy standards vary by city, with first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou usually offering higher amounts. Only vehicles meeting National I to III emission standards qualify. I always advise friends to check the local environmental protection bureau's official website for policies to avoid being scammed by shady middlemen. This approach not only saves money for purchasing safer new vehicles but also contributes to environmental protection. Of course, policies aren't uniform across all regions, so it's wise to regularly check for official updates.
