On October 20, 2025, the government officially confirmed that the customs excise tax applied to automobiles will remain unchanged starting in 2026. This announcement brings clarity and stability for both consumers and the automotive industry, especially amid ongoing economic challenges. Officials clarified that maintaining the current excise tax structure will help avoid additional financial pressure on vehicle buyers and support a more predictable market environment. Automotive importers and dealers have welcomed the decision, noting that it will prevent sudden price increases for new and used vehicles. The government also emphasized that long-term tax policies are essential for planning future mobility strategies, including the gradual transition to environmentally friendly vehicles. Citizens can therefore expect consistent customs-related costs when importing cars starting next year. More details about the policy implementation and its long-term goals are expected to be released before the end of 2025.
