According to RAR, the headquarters of the institution are prepared, starting Tuesday, to apply the measures necessary for the expertise and establishment of depreciation in vehicles, a measure necessary for imported used cars.

"The Romanian Automobile Registry has the technical attribute of issuing literature needed by the National Agency for Fiscal Administration for the calculation of the (pollution) tax," RAR said in a press release Tuesday.

People buying cars starting July 1, when the tax takes effect, will benefit from additional discounts from those already decided in the ordinance introducing the tax, calculated considering the car’s general technical state, equipments and age.

Depreciation elements will be assessed by the Romanian Automobile Registry, while buyers discontent with the level of the pollution tax may challenge it by appealing to an authorized expert within the Technical Experts’ Body.

The government will refund the difference between the former tax on the first registration of cars and the new pollution tax within 45 days of applicants’ requests.

Vehicle owners may ask the fiscal administration to refund the tax difference if they consider the tax paid in Jan 1, 2007 – Jun 30, 2008 is higher than the pollution tax calculated in Romanian lei at the indicative exchange rate at the time of vehicle registration in Romania.

Vehicle owners must attach to their refund application the receipt attesting the payment of the car tax and copies of the identity card and vehicle’s registration. The same documents are required when vehicles are leasing-acquired.

"Upon receiving the refund application, the fiscal body will ask the state treasury in writing to confirm that the applicant has indeed paid the car tax and to provide data on any overdue fiscal obligations the applicant has. If the applicant has dues to the state, the refund will subtract those obligations,” sources within the Ministry of Economy and Finance told MEDIAFAX.

The procedure to retain overdue fiscal obligations from the car tax refund has been stipulated in the norms for the enforcement of the ordinance introducing the pollution tax for cars.
