What is the purchase tax for Audi?
2 Answers
Audi's vehicle purchase tax rate is 10% of the vehicle price. Introduction to purchase tax: Purchase tax is a tax levied by tax authorities on the acquisition of specified properties and assets within the scope of the purchase tax system, such as vehicle purchase tax. Vehicle purchase tax is a tax imposed on entities and individuals who purchase designated vehicles within China, evolving from the vehicle purchase surcharge. Calculation for private vehicle tax rate: The taxable price equals (the total payment made to the seller for purchasing the taxable vehicle plus additional fees) multiplied by 10%, where the taxable price excludes VAT.
The purchase tax is essentially part of the car's price. I remember helping a colleague calculate it for an Audi Q3 last year with an invoice price of 270,000 yuan. The formula is the invoice price divided by 11.3, which came to about 23,000 yuan. However, it's important to note that the state has a minimum taxable price. If the invoice issued by the 4S dealer is lower than this amount, the tax office will still charge based on the minimum price. This applies to all fuel vehicles, but new energy Audis like the e-tron benefit as the state exempts this tax entirely. It's advisable to ask the salesperson to list the purchase tax separately before buying to avoid a shock when picking up the car. If you happen to buy during a policy adjustment period, it gets even more complicated. For example, the A4 I bought the year before last just made it before the end of the purchase tax halving policy, saving me nearly 10,000 yuan.
