Customs duties for large-engine cars have been reduced

Customs duties on cars less than a year old and with an engine capacity of more than 3,000 cm have been reduced from 30 percent to 15 percent.

Imports of hybrid cars with an engine capacity of more than 3 liters to Uzbekistan will become cheaper. This is stipulated in a presidential decree signed on 15 April.

The decision reduces the customs clearance of cars with an engine capacity of more than 3,000 cm in two stages.

Between April 15 and December 31, tariff rates were reduced from 30 percent to 15 percent; The additional coefficients for each cubic centimeter of car engine power were also halved (from $ 3 to $ 1.5).

Also, from January 1, 2023, additional coefficients related to car engine power will be reduced once again (from $ 1.5 to $ 1.25), and the basic duty rate of 15% will remain unchanged.

The new procedure applies to vehicles less than 1 year from the date of manufacture to the date of crossing the customs border of Uzbekistan.

In addition, for the first time, customs rates have been set for hybrid cars (cars with both an internal combustion engine and an electric engine).

Imports of hybrid cars now range from 15 percent to 30 percent of the car's price, depending on the type of engine and the year of manufacture. In the past, this type of car also had additional coefficients for each cubic centimeter of engine power.
