Anh Tuan’s experience is not uncommon. Understanding the various taxes and fees associated with purchasing a vehicle, especially a truck, is crucial to avoid confusion and save time. So, what exactly are these truck fees and taxes? Let’s delve into the details with Hanoi Trucks!

Types of Truck Fees and Taxes in Vietnam

1. Registration Fee (Before-Tax)

This is a tax levied on the purchase of a new vehicle. The current registration fee is 10% of the vehicle’s value in Hanoi and 2% in some other provinces.

Example: Anh Tuan bought a Hyundai Porter 150 for 400 million VND in Hanoi. He had to pay 40 million VND in registration fees.

2. Vehicle Registration Fee

This fee applies when registering a new vehicle’s license plate. The fee varies depending on the vehicle type and location.

Example: In Hanoi, the vehicle registration fee for trucks under 2 tons, like the Hyundai Porter 150, is 2 million VND.

3. Road Maintenance Fee

This fee replaces the BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) toll fee and is paid every 3 months or annually. The fee depends on the vehicle’s load capacity and type.

Example: Anh Tuan’s Hyundai Porter 150 has a load capacity under 1.5 tons, so his monthly road maintenance fee is 360,000 VND.

4. Compulsory Civil Liability Insurance

This insurance is mandatory for all vehicles participating in traffic. The fee depends on the vehicle type and seating capacity.

Example: Compulsory civil liability insurance for a Hyundai Porter 150 costs around 500,000 VND per year.

5. Other Fees

In addition to the above, vehicle owners must also pay other fees such as vehicle inspection fees, driver’s license fees, etc.
