Link to see this years rates.
https://intvd.gib.gov.tr/internetvd/index.jsp
Click, "MOTORLU TASITLAR"
Then, "Motorlu Tasitlar Vergisi Hesaplama"
Then, click the drop down menu for class of vehicle.
Then, how old the vehicle is.
Then, the cc group of the vehicle.
Then press blue button and there you are, the 6 month cost and the 12 month cost (which you can only pay in January).
That should be Lance proof:D ;)

I swear to never moan again again about UK road car Tax. :)
-
It doesn't cover all cars over there though - the vehicle age only goes up to 99 years :D
-
I think it's free after 99 years:D

It is free but only if the vehicle has been used and owned by the original registered keeper for that period!
-
And he/she is accompanied by their mother and father:D :o:D
-
& only if they live in Uzumlu :D:D:D

Thanks Baz for a comprehensive user guide to the site. Very useful and has helped me with some financial planning assumptions.
Mind you I really would like to see a test of the 'Lance Proof' assumption. That really is a big ask of any user guide:D ;)
-
Thanks Baz.

Well there you go Baz, your User Guide passed the 'Lance Test'. I reckon there are not many professional copy writers out there that could achieve that challenge. Well done sir[^][^]

Well mine came out at 190.50 - not too bad I guess - can't wait for my annual visit to the Maliye office - go in take ticket - ticket number comes up - they down tools for lunch. I go have luch at Lokanta opposite - come back and wait another 30 mins to hand them the money. Love it a proper day out that is (NOT). No please don't tell me to pay through bank - cos there have been massive probs in the past when people have done that - so I'll just take a deep breath, grit my teeth, bury my nose in a perfumed hanky and wait it out in tax queue (did I say queue???????)
-
in and out in 5 minutes .. one person infront of me .. no ticket to collect as machine was "kaput". :P
-
Just the same for us today at 9.30a.m. No ticket as machine still not fixed and only one person at the counter. In and out in 10 mins instead of the usual hour or so. Thought we must we dreaming.
!
-
Anybody know if you can pay your car tax with a Nationwide Visa credit card, registered to a Turkish address, or do they only take cash?
-
They only take cash. We once queued for over an hour to be told this when we got to the front of the queue. Went in yesterday afternoon. In and out in 10 mins. I didnt see the ticket machine I just joined the very small queue. It seems that Turkish people are also short of money in the New Year and wait until the last 3 days to pay. Trust me it is as Chris Says a full days job then. Go now if you can.!!

One thing about this type of taxation is you see how much the UK and Turkey differ - in the UK until recently there were incentives to ditch your old (as in 10 year old plus) car and buying a new one. The Turkish system of course targets the gas guzzlers but the range is outrageous - from what, £6,000 per year to tax a Range Rover down to twenty quid for a year's tax on a smoky old antique. No wonder the roads are filled with dangerously ancient polluting old bangers.

I think you will find anything over 25 years old in the UK is tax free

I think you will also find that the days of old scrap type cars are getting to be a thing of the past Keith. We used to pass dozens of them but they are definitley outnumbered now by newer cars and you should see all the flash expensive ones.!!! Even the old bikes that were sometimes like lawnmowers with motors have been replace by the Chinese electric ones. They will regret that trust me.
-
I remember the days when a new car passing could stop a conversation in Calis Anne - there's definitely a real change - the number of new cars, big 4x4s is huge compared with just 10 years ago. The real problem with old cars to me is not the pollution, it's the lack of safety due to both age of manufacture and present condition - perhaps explaining why, along with the no seatbelt culture, so many collisions over there result in fatalities.
-
In Turkey there used to (if not still) be available a trade of cars of a certain age, the cash back used to be 5,000Tl, not sure if this was the government trying to get them to purchase new cars.
Is this scheme still going in Turkey?
