The car tax is one of the taxes most hated by Italians, most motorists choose not to pay it in the hope of never being caught, because it is considered a totally useless tax.
In reality, paying the car tax is essential, because sooner or later you risk having to pay double or triple as a result of checks by the Revenue Agencies.
Anyone looking for valid tricks not to pay without being part of the tax evaders, in reality there are none, they are all more or less risky. If you don’t want to take a risk, you only have to do one thing and that is to inform yourself.
Paying the car tax is mandatory but not for everyone
There are some people who are entitled to exemption and others who are entitled to a 50% discount. If you have cars or motorbikes, it is advisable to inquire to understand whether or not you fall into one of the two lucky ranges.
Unlike insurance, car tax must be paid regardless of use, so even if the vehicle is stopped in the garage or in the driveway, you have to pay. We all know the insurance, it must be paid only if you use the car or motorbike to circulate around the roads of the Italian territory.
Which means are exempt or are entitled to the 50% discount
In these days there could be good news both for lovers of two wheels and for car owners. Not every day we find ourselves faced with the possibility of not paying the car tax, so it is better to inquire if you want to save significant amounts of money.
Exempt cars and motorcycles are those that belong to people with disabilities, who enjoy the law 104 of 1992 or who takes care of them, then the guardians. Those who own means of significant historical value can also enjoy the exemption.
Anyone who has a motorcycle who is 20 to 29 years of age and a document that certifies the historical relevance has the possibility of taking advantage of a 50% reduction of the stamp duty to be paid. For some motorcycles, i.e. those of the Armed Forces or Special Forces, civil protection, the stamp duty is free.
In the same way it is for the two-wheeled vehicles that are used by the regions, the province, the municipalities, which are exempt. Obviously not all the means that belong to these entities, but only some or those that are used for the exercise of public functions and for community assistance.
