What is a Smuggled Vehicle?
1 Answers
Smuggled vehicles refer to imported vehicles that have not entered the country through normal import channels and have not paid the required taxes. Such vehicles cannot be registered as motor vehicles, except for those auctioned by the court, which can be registered. Below is more related information: 1. Legal Liability: According to Article 60 of the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations,' if a traffic police officer illegally registers stolen, smuggled, illegally assembled, or vehicles that meet the national mandatory scrapping standards, they will be penalized according to national regulations. If they do not correct their behavior after education and are not suitable for dismissal, they will be dismissed in accordance with the 'Public Security Organs Organization Management Regulations.' Hired personnel will be terminated. If a crime is constituted, criminal liability will be pursued. 2. Smuggling Crime: Smuggled vehicles mainly originate from legally purchased new or used vehicles in regions such as Japan, the Middle East, the United States, and Europe. Due to the significant price difference caused by domestic tariffs and consumption taxes, the vehicle smuggling industry has emerged. Purchasing a smuggled vehicle constitutes the crime of smuggling. Smuggling refers to evading customs supervision, illegally transporting, carrying, or mailing items prohibited or restricted by the state from entering or exiting the country, or goods and items that should legally pay tariffs and other import taxes, with a large amount or serious circumstances.
