In a thread recently Mitzy asked about the increase of various taxes but I cannot find it. Anyway I received our car tax demand today €45.41 exactly the same as last year so hopefully the rest of the taxes will be the same. Some hopes.

Ipaid my car tax yesterday 48 euro, no rise from last year

The Circulation Tax (Road Tax) is a Town Hall tax, thus every Municipality is/can be different.

Mitzyboy

Yes I think we know that, but interesting to see the differences. Also varies depending on the car engine / emissions

Fred James

Are you sure that it is now based on emissions? I know that the registration tax now is but I thought that the local tax was still based on "fiscal horsepower".

Incidentally, when I moved 15km the tax increased threefold - I now pay €140 for a 1.9l diesel.

That's more than it would cost in the UK.

Mitzyboy

I said the car engine, so maybe I should have said engine size

I did read somewhere that emissions come into it, but tbh as far as I know mine is based on the size of the vehicle

Rosemary

I know that it varies from area to area, I mentioned it because I was extremely surprised that it had not risen and wondered if other people had a different experience.

jdr

I was paying more than that here 3 years ago Fred.
I think they add some on for all the illegal UK motors here.

I havnt paid mine for 5 years.

JulianWard

Don't worry. They will 'let you pay' with an appropriate fine and back interest added.

betris

Im not worried.I bought the vechle of a expat going home he didnt bother with the paper work.let this be a lesson for any one not doing things right in spain

The fun will start when you come to sell it ,no one will want it , also traffico are now asking for proof that taxes are paid so you'll end up have the car impounded.

betris

taxes are a civil mater.same as rates.even if it ever gets impounded.wich there s no chance.its paid for itself in parking in tickets alone

JulianWard

Just in passing. I was wondering how, if you are not the registered owner, you can insure it, ITV etc. Also when a person is driving a vehicle not registered to them they need an authorisation letter from the owner.

If I am not mistaken, beaches of Traffic regulations are contrary to the law, not civil matters.
