Muske was very busy these days. He just went to Beijing and Ma Yun yesterday. He flew to Beijing today. Some netizens met Masks and his friends in the West Fourth at noon. The news that Musk and the Minister of Transport Li Xiaopeng met.
Early this evening, Tesla’s news of exemption from taxation has swept through the circle of friends, and at the same time caused a heated discussion among the old owners about “tax rebates”.
This is the case. Tonight, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has released a catalogue of new energy vehicles (the twenty-sixth batch) exempt from vehicle purchase tax. Tesla is on the list. That is to say, Tesla, who has entered China for many years, can finally enjoy the policy of exemption from taxation like a domestic electric vehicle.
As for why Tesla has not been in the tax-free catalogue, Cui Dongshu, the secretary-general of the Association, explained that Tesla’s overcharge technology does not meet the charging standards for new energy vehicles in China.
But with Tesla’s access to the new national standard, the charging standard seems to no longer become the threshold for Tesla to enter the tax-free catalogue.
The current tax rate for automobile purchase tax is 10%. The calculation formula is: purchase tax for imported cars = taxable price × 10% = (duty duty-paid price + tariff + consumption tax) × 10%. For example, the model 3, which was purchased by my friend a month ago, has a bare-bones price of 411,160 yuan and a purchase tax of 36,385.84 yuan.
The same is true today, Tesla’s entire price increase, Model 3 rose 10,000, the first two, my friend’s direct “loss” of the small 30,000.
As for the car buyers who are concerned about whether they can “return the tax”, there is no final conclusion, but the owner of the car has been arguing.
Because the tax department is off work on Friday, we are unable to get in touch with it.
Weibo blogger@不郑小康The reply can be refunded as long as it enters the catalog, regardless of the time of purchase. 12366 It is the official service hotline of the tax department, but the blogger has deleted this Weibo.
After ten minutes, @Tesla-Suzhou has a slight problem with the “tax refund” and screenshots Tesla’s “internal mail”.
The mail states that the unpaid tax vehicle, Tesla will assist the customer to apply for the tax exemption certificate. As for the tax-paid vehicles, the purchase tax reduction policy cannot be enjoyed regardless of whether the card is paid or not.
I also got in touch with a person in charge of Tesla. Regarding the “tax refund”, the other party said that “it is still unclear and is verifying the information” and said that “the vehicle purchase tax is uniformly collected by the national tax authorities”.
We asked the tax authorities about the “tax refund” regulations:
1, the vehicle is returned to the manufacturer or distributor;
2. Non-transport vehicles with fixed devices that are eligible for tax exemption but taxed;
3. Other circumstances that should be refunded according to laws and regulations.
According to the regulations, we can’t seem to find the exact answer. Although the second one seems to be in line, it seems that “with fixtures” does not match any of Tesla’s models.
I continued to inquire about what is called a non-transport vehicle with fixed devices. These vehicles are mainly concrete pump trucks, drilling rigs, washing fluids, cleaning trucks, workovers, and vehicles. Sand car, compressor car, oil production truck, derrick vertical, installation car, boiler car, ground anchor car, continuous sucker rod work car, nitrogen car, slurry seal car.
All in all, they are “work vehicles.”
Let’s see if there is a precedent. The most direct thought of me is the halving of the purchase tax for passenger cars under 1.6L. The policy was implemented on October 1, 2015, but it was reviewed at the time. News, I did not find a “tax refund”.
It is understood that the policy at that time is entirely based on your purchase date, which means that the 1.6L passenger car with a billing date earlier than October 1, 2015 will be halved in the purchase tax.
If you apply Tesla today, the “tax refund” hopes…
But there are many different opinions in the car owners. Some people say that the tax friend has asked the superior to say that he can retire…
In short, I didn’t find any legal explanations, and I didn’t find precedent support. Everything has to wait until the tax department works on Monday. It is estimated that many Tesla owners are not happy to spend this weekend….
But no matter what the outcome, I hope that the owners will look at this issue rationally. Taxation is a national act. Tesla really should not back this time.
