Romania’s Car Tax Levied On Euro 4 Cars Bought Last Year As Of Monday

Euro 4 cars with a cylinder capacity of less or equal to 2,000 cubic centimeters were exempt from the pollution tax in Romania if registered for the first time anywhere within the European Union between December 15, 2008 and December 31, 2009.

At the end of 2009, Romanian authorities asked the European Commission to allow six more months of tax exemption for Euro 4 cars, but the Commission refused and only allowed a 45-day extension for cars bought until December 31 last year and unregistered so far.

People who bought Euro 4 cars as of January 1, 2010 also have to pay the pollution tax upon registering their cars.
