Transport tax: find out TIN debts
Transport tax is administered by the constituent entities of the country. it regional tax its size is determined by the regional government, taking into account the engine capacity of the car and the year of manufacture. This state tax is the most controversial, and the reason for everything is an elementary ignorance of the law. The payer of this tax is the owner of the car: the person for whom it is registered, and not the one who actually drives it. So, the family car must be paid by the one indicated in the document on it.
Another problem arises with a general power of attorney. When selling a car by proxy very often, the former owner refuses to pay transport car tax referring to the fact that it no longer belongs to him, and the new owner uses it. However, the law does not change the owner when selling a car by proxy, therefore, it remains the obligation to pay tax. The buyer in this case does not become the owner, he only uses the car, although he has the right to sell it. Misunderstandings arise with machines that have become obsolete and must be disposed of. Until such a car is deregistered in the traffic police, the car owner is required to pay a vehicle tax. And the fact that he has been idle for several years in the garage is not a reason for refusing to pay tax.
