Each car owner must register his vehicle (VV) in accordance with the procedure established by law, and regularly pay the appropriate transport tax. The subtleties of calculating this mandatory payment are regulated by regional laws on transport tax, specifying the terms, benefits and base rates within the limits outlined by the provisions of Chapter 28 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation (TC RF). The question arises: “How to calculate car tax?”

Vehicle owners themselves are responsible for monitoring the correct calculation of transport tax, as well as promptly providing changes in information regarding car ownership and documents confirming the right to a tax benefit.

Calculation of transport tax on a car

The amount of automobile transport tax is determined using a standard formula. The number of horsepower (hp) indicated in the technical passport of the car is sequentially multiplied by the current tax rate, and then by a coefficient calculated as the ratio of the number of full months of owning the car to the total number of months in the year, that is, by 12.

Example 1.

Let's say we are the owners of a Renault Logan car, the engine power is 75 horsepower and we live in the Moscow region. The transport tax rate in Moscow and Moscow Region today is 12 rubles. Then the cost of transport tax for 1 year will be:

12 rubles x 75 horsepower = 900 rubles.

Example 2.

Let's say we have owned a VAZ Priora car for 9 months and live in Moscow. The rate in Moscow is 12 rubles per hp. The car's power is 98 horsepower. Then the cost of transport tax for 9 months will be:

12 rub. x 98 hp x ((9 months we own the car) / (12 months a year)) = 882 rubles.

Car tax is paid only for the period in which the car was registered to a specific owner. For the month of transfer of transport from one owner to another, only one owner pays.

When calculating the coefficient, a month of car ownership is considered complete if the car

• registered with the traffic police from the 1st to the 15th;
• or deregistered after the 15th.

In other cases, the month of registration of the car or its deregistration will be taken into account when calculating the transport tax for the other party to the purchase and sale transaction ().

Transport tax on luxury car

Formula for calculating transport tax for a car whose cost is more than 3 million. rub. and if you own it for more than 1 year:

Transport tax amount = (Tax rate) x (L. s) x (Increasing coefficient)

Calculation of tax on a car whose cost is more than 3 million. rub. and if you own it for less than 1 year:

Transport tax amount = (Tax rate) x (L. s) x (Number of months of ownership / 12) x (Increasing factor)

Increasing coefficient (Chapter 28, Article 362 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation):

1.1 - for passenger cars with an average cost of 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, from the year of manufacture of which 2 to 3 years have passed;
1.3 - for passenger cars with an average cost of 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, from the year of manufacture of which 1 to 2 years have passed;
1.5 - for passenger cars with an average cost of 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, no more than 1 year has passed since the year of manufacture;
2 - for passenger cars with an average cost of 5 million to 10 million rubles inclusive, no more than 5 years have passed since the year of manufacture;
3 - in relation to passenger cars with an average cost of 10 million to 15 million rubles inclusive, no more than 10 years have passed since the year of manufacture;
3 - for passenger cars with an average cost of 15 million rubles, no more than 20 years have passed since the year of manufacture.

Online transport tax calculator

You can also use the transport tax calculator on the website of the Federal Tax Service (FTS) of Russia.

Horsepower Tax Rates

The tax rate on a car is determined by the target laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, but does not go beyond the limits established by Article 361 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation and depends on:

• machine engine power in hp. With.;
• region;
• can be differentiated taking into account the category, age and environmental class of the vehicle.

For very expensive cars with a price of 3 million rubles or more, additional increasing coefficients () are applied. In some cases, this coefficient increases the tax amount three times. Lists of models and brands of cars that are subject to increasing coefficients are updated annually by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation.

Transport tax benefits

According to most regional laws, veterans and disabled people of the Great Patriotic War, Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of Russia and other groups of taxpayers are exempt from paying car tax. The list of Muscovite beneficiaries even includes representatives (one of two parents) of large families.

But in St. Petersburg, only one of the parents of a family with at least four minor children can take advantage of such a benefit, and a number of citizens will be able to use the established benefit only on the condition that their vehicle is domestically produced and has an engine with a capacity of up to 150 hp. With.

Deadlines for paying car taxes

Car tax is paid at the place of registration of the car, and in the absence of such, at the place of residence of the owner of the vehicle.

1. Individuals must pay car tax no later than December 1(), based on a tax notice received from the Federal Tax Service along with a completed payment document.

If you fail to pay your car tax on time, a penalty will be charged.

IMPORTANT! Tax authorities calculate transport tax taking into account data on the state registration of the car. If the car owner is not entitled to a preferential tax exemption, then, having not received a tax notice before December 1, the car owner is obliged to inform the territorial tax office about the vehicle he has and receive the document necessary to pay the car tax.

ON A NOTE! Only with a certificate provided from the internal affairs bodies stating that the car is wanted, the tax office can suspend the calculation of car tax and continue it from the month of return if the car is found and returned to the owner.

2. Legal entities themselves calculate the transport tax and make quarterly advance payments (one-fourth of the total amount). If the tax is calculated on an expensive car included in a special list of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, then advance payments are paid immediately, taking into account the required increasing factor. At the end of the year, the remaining tax must be paid by February 1 of the year following the reporting year, that is, before the deadline established by law for submitting annual tax returns.

Online check

It will not be possible to find out the amount of transport tax based on the state registration number of the car. All data is available only if information about the owner of the vehicle is provided.

The car tax liability can be clarified online through the official websites of government agencies.

1. Personal account of the taxpayer, operating on the website of the Federal Tax Service. You will need to enter an individual taxpayer number (TIN) and password.

You will first have to activate the service by personally appearing at the tax office, where after registering the application they will issue an access password recorded in the registration card, the login will be the taxpayer’s TIN. When the deadline for accruing tax on a car comes, its amount can be checked using the “Accrued” link by selecting the appropriate object of taxation (car). Until the tax is calculated, the results can be viewed in the “Overpayment/debt” column.

2. State Services Portal, by last name, first name, patronymic and insurance number of the individual personal account (SNILS) of the payer. You will first have to register by entering personal data in the appropriate fields (full name, date and place of birth, residential address and email, etc.)
Then you need to fill out an application to provide information on tax debt. Information is provided free of charge, no later than 5 working days, as the system will forward the request to the Federal Tax Service.

3. The website of the Federal Bailiff Service allows you to find out about overdue transport tax debts. Without prior registration, by entering the full name and date of birth of the debtor in the appropriate search lines and selecting the desired region from the list.

Transport tax is paid annually by all car owners. For individuals, the amount of car tax is calculated by the tax service, but citizens must control the correctness of these calculations independently.

If inaccuracies are discovered, taxpayers are required to inform the Federal Tax Service of the errors made and the need to make appropriate changes. Thanks to the development of modern technologies, it is possible to clarify and correct calculations received from tax authorities not only by personally appearing at the tax office or by sending registered letters by mail, but also online, through the personal account of the taxpayer.

What does a buyer think about when purchasing a car for personal use? About ease of movement, about getting rid of the crowds on public transport, about out-of-town trips, about speed. But you should not lose sight of one small but significant nuance of owning a four-wheeled “horse” - the tax on this movable property.

Every vehicle is subject to taxation. And here it is important to know what exists before the state. Each region has its own rates, but the period of time provided for payment remains unshakable for any locality. October 1 is the deadline for making tax payments for transport (the year following the reporting year is taken into account).

Forewarned is forearmed

The specified payment framework requires timely payment of funds. Ignoring the payment deadline entails the formation of debt in the form of penalties. Leaving a tax payment for a long time in oblivion can threaten a lawsuit. The phrases “didn’t know” or “forgot” are unlikely to turn out to be auxiliary links in the chain of this unpleasant story. And let the quote “ignorance of the laws is no excuse” serve as a good incentive for an annual one-time payment.

Obtaining information about debt

There are several ways to determine debt to the state regarding transport tax:

• through the State Services portal (www.gosuslugi.ru).
• through the Bailiffs website (www.fssprus.ru).
• through the Internet resource of the Federal Tax Service (www.nalog.ru).
• using the Internet service “Taxes: debt verification”. Service - Yandex.Money.
• by direct appeal to the Tax Committee.

Car tax and State Services website

To obtain the necessary information, the State Services e-government portal offers pre-registration, which includes:

1. passport details.
2. SNILS.

This online resource does not have information on taxes, but resorts to the help of the Federal Tax Service website, from where it receives the necessary data.

The State Services Portal does not have an automatic payment service. It is purely an information resource.

Using the Bailiffs portal

On the Bailiffs website there is a convenient opportunity to obtain an extract on motor vehicle tax debt. No registration required. User information is limited to:

• FULL NAME.
• date of birth.

Information about the presence of a tax debt on the car and an offer to repay the above amount arise immediately. The online mode of this resource allows you to make payments in two options:

• using electronic payment systems (Yandex.Money, WebMoney).
• debiting funds from the mobile phone balance.

Important: make sure payment has been received. The key to a successful outcome will be a follow-up call to the service inspector a few days later.

With the help of the Federal Tax Service

An account must be created on the Federal Tax Service website.

To do this, you will need a personal visit to the tax committee, where a registration card will be issued with a password to enter the taxpayer’s personal account.

The TIN will serve as your login, and the password received from the tax authorities will help you open your personal account. Here the user has the option:

• obtain information about transport tax.
• draw up a payment document.
• print it out for further payment.
• transfer funds online to payment services of partner banks.

Useful information: from your personal account you can send questions to the tax committee via messages.

TIN and identification of transport tax debts

Information about tax debts is not a state secret. Therefore, you can get reliable information on this issue bypassing the official portals.

Resource Yandex money will allow, using the TIN, to satisfy the taxpayer’s interest in the requested amounts. Here you can make payment using one of the following methods:

• using a bank card by bank transfer.
• using money transfer via Yandex.Money.

This service will also send a payment receipt via email.

Independent Internet resources often do not require additional authorization.

Visit to the tax office

The most universal way to clarify the situation regarding debt to the state is to personally contact the tax committee. Here the taxpayer will receive comprehensive information about his debt payments and will be able to immediately make payment according to the issued receipt.

Payment is made in several ways:

• through payment terminals,
• through bank branches,
• through electronic payments,
• through Sberbank, Gazprombank, QIWI Bank online,
• withdrawing money from your mobile phone balance.

Identification of debt by car number

The accrual of transport tax and the order to pay it are assigned to a specific person (individual or legal entity).

And although the car is a direct object of taxation, inspectors will provide information about the debt only upon presentation of a passport or identity card. The license plate number of the car is relegated to the background.

Deregistration – tax relief

All vehicles registered with the traffic police are subject to taxation. Even if the car is not used for its intended purpose for a long time, but is parked in a garage due to repairs.

To avoid paying transport tax, you need deregister the car. To do this, you need to submit an application for recycling to the traffic police (it is not necessary to drive the car under a press). In the meantime, while money is being saved and the car is being repaired, the transport tax is not paid. Registration can be restored when the car is driven.

If the car is stolen, you must obtain a police certificate or a copy of the resolution to initiate a criminal case regarding the theft of the vehicle and present it to the tax office. Or provide this document to the traffic police with a request to deregister the car while it is wanted.

It is necessary to keep in mind: late payment of taxes entails a whole series of problems. This includes penalties, the possibility of not being able to travel abroad, and the inability to sell vehicles. No wonder one smart person said: “If you break the rules, you are fined, if you comply, you are taxed.”

In order for the employee to provide tax information and a duplicate payment receipt, the citizen must come with a passport or any identification document.

But this method is losing its relevance every year, because you need to waste time in queues, travel, etc. It is much easier to obtain the necessary information using special sites and portals.

How to find out the transport tax debt on the Federal Tax Service website (nalog.ru)

If you don’t have time to contact the inspectorate in person, you can find out the transport tax online. To do this, you can use the website nalog.ru. This is one of the fastest ways to clarify your debt; you don’t need to call or go to the tax office. You need to do the following:

But it is important to remember that if there is no information on the FSSP website, this does not mean that there is no tax debt. Typically, bailiffs open enforcement proceedings against those who do not pay taxes for a long time or systematically.

The Bailiff Service offers users of online services to find out about debts, including taxes, through the social networks Vkontakte and Odnoklassniki. You can access the FSSP website and receive regular updates using applications from GooglePlay, Windows or AppStore.

In addition, it is worth monitoring the amount of accruals and the amount of established payments so as not to overpay. Payment must be made on time to avoid penalties. Therefore, car owners are often interested in how they can check their car tax.

Where can I find out information?

Data on cars registered in the region is stored in the regional traffic police authorities. However, the issues of receipt of transport tax payments are supervised by the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate (IFTS), located at the place of registration of the car. These two bodies exchange relevant data with each other. Therefore, if you want to know about the amount or unpaid taxes on a car, send a request to your local INFS.

There are several ways to exercise this right:

personal visit to the tax office at the place of registration;

Call the tax inspector who has access to the relevant database;

Send your request in writing by registered mail to the Federal Tax Service;

Go to special online resources;

Wait until the corresponding receipt is sent to you by mail.

Note!In cases where the car was stolen, sold or donated, the tax from the former owner is not automatically removed. He is obliged to provide the Federal Tax Service with a certificate of theft and search for the vehicle, a purchase and sale agreement or a gift agreement, respectively.

Online Tax Check Methods

If the prospect of queues at the tax office does not make you happy, or you do not want to wait for notifications by mail, It is possible to check the data online. There are three main options for how to find out car taxes on the Internet: the website of the bailiff service, the official online resource of the Federal Tax Service, and the online project “Gosuslugi”. Access to the database through the last two requires prior registration. After completing it, you receive your personal online account through which you perform the necessary manipulations.

Online resource for bailiff service

The easiest way to view transport tax via the Internet is to go to the bailiffs website. However, it contains information only about overdue debts that, by court decision, are in enforcement proceedings.

Interesting! Upon request, the service is ready to provide similar information through the “Data Bank of Enforcement Proceedings” application on the Russian social networks “Odnoklassniki” and “Vkontakte”. Information is also provided to mobile devices that use the Android, iPhone and Windows Phone operating systems.

Official portal of the Federal Tax Service

The most reliable data on taxes is on the official portal of the Federal Tax Service. But to get to it, you will need to pre-register, which will give you access to your personal account. By going there, you will not only decide how to check your car tax online, but also clarify the formula for calculating your tariff: benefits, rates, overpayments, debts, etc.

However, you will not be able to register on the portal remotely. First, you need to go to the tax office and receive a registration card with your personal login and password. It will be easier to register if you have a previously issued qualified electronic signature or a universal electronic card.

Note!Access to the database is not given immediately. You must be prepared to wait about three days until you are connected to the information database.

After opening access to the database, you will be able to view data on debts, accruals, payments, overpayments, and taxable items in the relevant sections. The contents of notifications sent by mail are also available there.

Website of the State Services project

You can clarify the data on transport tax, as well as find out the debt on it, through the State Services resource. Here you also need registration, which is provided in two formats: a simplified version and a full one. In the first case, you need to write your full name and mobile phone number. You will receive an SMS message with your login password. As you can see, registration takes a few minutes, but it involves using a minimum of portal functions, which does not include transport tax verification.

You can solve the issue of how to check transport tax at State Services by entering your passport data and indicating SNILS. This will allow you to start the user registration process, as well as receive the necessary data from the tax office. Next, you must confirm your identity. This is done in one of the following ways:

1. Use your electronic signature or indicate the details of the Universal Electronic Card;

2. Go to the Rostelecom service center in person;

3. Receive a registered letter with a code at your post office after presenting your passport.

There are no more ways to view transport tax on State Services. They are not as remote as expected, but after going in person with documents once, you can then find out information without leaving home.

Find out tax by car number

Theoretically, it is quite possible to clarify the size and other tax information using the car number. All data about car owners and their cars, including vehicle numbers, is contained in the databases of bailiff services, the tax inspectorate and other authorities. However, in any case, before this information is made public, it is necessary to identify the person requesting it. That is, both in order to find out the tax on a car via the Internet, and in order to clarify it by car number, you need to show your passport, TIN and other personal data.

The exception is special hardware and software complexes “Road Bailiff”. Using a special device, the car number is read and checked against a previously loaded database. If the tax on this car has not been paid, or the owner is in the database as a willful defaulter of other mandatory payments, the device gives an audible and visual signal. But such installations are intended for use by employees of the traffic police, tax inspectorate and the Federal Bailiff Service.

Check data by last name and TIN

Having figured out how to view the tax on a car at the State Services or Tax Inspectorate, it is not difficult to guess that checking it by last name or TIN will not be a problem. However, with the help of a TIN, access to information about accruals and debts for this tax is also possible using other resources. For example, a similar service is provided by Yandex.Money, which today is the property of Sberbank of Russia. The corresponding service “Taxes: debt verification” operates on this resource.

This is another way to find out your transport tax via the Internet. After clicking on the appropriate link, you will be offered the opportunity to clarify the data by entering the document index or TIN. By entering the required indicators and clicking the “Check” button, you will receive your result.

Check via terminal

Today, many banks provide the opportunity to pay various mandatory payments through terminals. You can pay your car tax in a similar way. But before you deposit money into the terminal, you can clarify the amount of tax.

There are two ways to connect to the database. First of all, using the barcode that is located on the payment receipt. The Federal Tax Service sends it by mail, but you can also print the payment via the Internet. It is enough to bring this barcode to the sensor on the terminal, and all the data will be displayed on the screen. The second way is to enter the unique number of this receipt into the terminal, and the system will automatically display all the data entered on it.

As you can see, there are many ways to find out about the tax on your vehicle: through the websites of the relevant services, bank terminals or by personal contact. Finding a convenient one will not be difficult.

By purchasing a vehicle, the car owner undertakes to pay taxes to the service for its use for personal purposes.

Transport tax is a mandatory duty for all individuals and legal entities, the amount of which is calculated depending on the make and power of the car, the region of the country and additional characteristics of the unit.

Therefore, car owners have a question: where and to be informed, long before the notification arrives at their place of residence?

Where can I see the amount and debt

All newly purchased cars undergo the procedure of registration and registration with the new owner.

It takes place in the regional traffic police, where data on all registered units is subsequently stored, which employees exchange with the Federal Tax Service.

That is, information about car owners, as taxpayers, is located in the tax service of the Russian Federation.

By contacting government departments, you can find out all the information about your debts to the state. In our case, the reason for applying will be to find out the amount of transport tax or duty debt.

You can send a request to the tax office at your place of registration using the following methods:

1. If you are the owner of a car, then you need to visit the tax office at the place where the car was registered.
2. Write a registered letter, with the ability to track its location.
3. Obtain information about transport taxes via the Internet using various resources.
4. A personal call to the tax inspector who has access to the database.
5. Do not find out anything and receive notification within the specified period according to the schedule.

As a result of the request and confirmation of your identity, you are provided with information about the debt and the amount of transport tax, which you may disagree with, citing improper assessment, in the case of a duty on a vehicle that has already been sold, of which you are no longer the owner.

Checking the tax amount is carried out in order to protect yourself from unnecessary expenses and not overpay the duty in vain or for someone else, as well as to inform your readiness to pay the full amount within the specified period without delays or penalties.

In order not to be on the hook from the buyer for not re-registering the vehicle in time, the tax office will have to provide evidence in the form of a copy of the purchase and sale agreement.

Transport tax is not charged. However, the tax office must be notified of this incident.

There are two ways to check the amount of debt or find out the amount of tax. The first is the traditional type, when you go to the tax office with your passport and wait in long queues for your time.

But contact methods in cases of visiting an institution have faded into the background with the development of information and communication technologies.

The second way to find out the amount of debt is via the Internet, without leaving the apartment, which does not require much time and effort, but only:

• Internet network;
• additional information about the taxpayer.

You can find out the tax amount:

1. On the official website of the Tax Service of the Russian Federation.
2. The information is provided by the Unified Russian Portal of State Services.
3. The amount of motor vehicle tax can be obtained through the website of the Federal Bailiff Service.

The website of the Federal Bailiff Service is the last place to find out information. After all, duty debts that have not been paid for a long time are entered here. The organization entered you into the database at the request of the Federal Tax Service.

How to find out the tax amount by car number

To request information about the amount of tax due to debt, you are required to confirm your identity both on the indicated sites and in case of a personal visit to the institution. You will be required to provide various documents and information, such as your full name and more.

Therefore, it will not be possible to determine the amount of transport tax based on the car number and check the transport tax using only the car number.

But data on all vehicles, as well as license plates, is kept in the database of the tax service and the bailiff service (when the debt is assigned through the court).

Therefore, having verified your identity in the above services, you will have the opportunity to find out the amount of tax on the car using the vehicle number.

To determine the amount of duty debt in most regions of Russia, “Road Bailiffs” are used. This is similar to the hardware and software complex that is used to search for fines for vehicle taxes.

The above complex can automatically check transport tax debts using vehicle registration numbers.

Via the Federal Tax Service website

Using this portal you need to:

1. The first stage is registration on the resource. You can log in to your personal account.
2. Next, you need to enter the received login in the appropriate fields (it must match the Taxpayer Identification Number) and also come up with a password.
3. Then in a new window you need to select the “Overpayment/Debt” section and open the tab.
4. On the next page you will see all the necessary tax information that needs to be paid.
5. There is also an opportunity to close overdue payments by clicking the “Pay Debts” button. The system will make the payment itself, and you will be given a receipt.

When using the portal, you must note that the information provided on the site is of a narrowly focused nature, where debts on taxes on the aggregate are taken into account.

If there are no delays and the deadline has not expired, the amount will not be withdrawn on the website.
