Now ukayozanny rates are differentiated in a zavisiyomost from, whether is registration of transyoportny means in Ukraine the first or not, and for the first registration – also on term of an isyopolzovaniye of such vehicle.

According to the Law at the first registration the vehicle tax is paid completely in a year, irrespective of, how many months osta­los before the termination of the current year.

It is necessary to pay attention that for snyayoty from the account within a year cars, zaregistyorirovanny in Ukraine for the first time, recalculation na­loga towards its reduction with the account ostav­shegosya until the end of the year of the period also not proizvo­ditsya. That is a tax paid on a povyshenyony rate, at car sale to return not podle­zhit.

Now the vehicle tax is excluded from the list of taxes and fees from which payment payers of the fixed agricultural tax are released. So, since 2007, such payers pay a vehicle tax in accordance with general practice.
