In some regions the payment of car tax It was prolonged due to the health and economic emergency caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. In others, nothing has changed and the same terms are still applied as in the pre-pandemic period. To further complicate an already complex situation, we must also take into account the recent modification that involved those drivers who have decided to rent vehicles for the long term. Let’s do some clarity.
Two exceptions
Each regional administration has decided, completely autonomously, if and when postpone the expiration of the terms of the automobile tax balance. Since each region has its own rules, it’s easy to lose your way and forget to pay. The extension is still valid in Sicily and in province of trento: both have set the limit to November 30.
In particular, in Sicily It is possible to pay the fee up to a maximum of 30 days after the deadline, that is, December 31st. Sicilian motorists are also exempt from payment if they are in possession of vehicles (not valid for motorcycles) rated up to 53 kilowatts (72 horsepower) or registered before December 31, 2010, if the owner has no annual income. more than 15 thousand euros. To apply for the car tax voucher it is necessary to connect to the ACI website, complete the required forms and enter your data before printing the application.
The other regions
The two cases mentioned above are exceptions. In the remaining regions, the deadlines they are the traditional ones from the pre-pandemic period. That is to say: in April, August and December for automobiles; from January to July for motorcycles. apart the speech deserves Lombardy, whose term expired on October 31.
We remind you that as of January 1, 2020, the property tax on motor vehicles can only be paid electronically PaymentPA. We are talking about a standardized system, designed to simplify bureaucratic procedures. Little or nothing will change for citizens, since they will continue to pay at authorized ATMs, but also at SISAL and Lottomatica points of sale, post offices, ACI agencies and all other offices authorized to collect the tax.
Rental car
Auto chapter a rental. According to the 2020 maneuver, the circulation tax of the aforementioned vehicles had to be paid before June 30. It is important to note that the tax is paid by those who use the vehicle or by employers in the case of company cars. However, several Regions have decided to extend the terms of the balance and others are willing to do so.
In Lazio the payment period has been postponed until November 30; There is also a 10% discount on the amount of car tax. In the province of Trento on December 15; in Emilia romagna, Veneto and Lombardia, similar resolutions are pending.
Penalties for delays
What happens to those who do not pay the car tax in the terms established by law? the sanctions they are variable and increase in conjunction with the days of delay. If the latecomers pay the deposit within the first 14 days from the deadline, they will face a penalty of 0.1% of the evaded tax for each day of delay, in addition to the default interest. If the delay is between 15 and 30 days, you must pay the stamp duty plus a penalty of 1.50% and late payment interest for each day of delay.
The situation begins to worsen if the delay is between 31 and 90 days. Here, in addition to the amount of stamp duty and the usual default interest calculated for each day of delay, there is a penalty of 1.67%. Beyond 91 days (but within a year), the payment of the stamp, a fine of 3.75% and interests. After one year, the latecomer must pay the stamp duty, the interest percentage calculated for each semester evaded and a 30% fine.
At that time, if the delay persists, the Region will send a friendly notification. In case of more black smoke, the Revenue Agency will send one within two years tax notice, with 60 days to remedy. Otherwise, the car could be blocked, the vehicle stopped, until the Public Registry’s radio action and the vehicle’s foreclosure.
Speaking of sanctions, in Tuscany a real earthquake is coming. As the newspaper pointed out The nation, there are 311,000 motorists residing in the region from whom the Damocles sword of the car tax hangs. There are two aspects to consider. Meanwhile, the black smoke has arrived for the request for payment until December 31; furthermore, the Region does not reach 111 million. Time is running out and no signals come from the government, at least for the moment.
