Claims that retirees will be given SST-free cars continue to be on the social media agenda. Millions of citizens who are SGK and Bağ-Kur members are asking: “Has the law been promulgated, when has it been promulgated and what are the conditions?” looking for answers to questions.
The issue of “cars without excise tax”, which is of interest to about 17 million retirees in Türkiye, has become the number one topic in public opinion in recent days. Especially after vacation bonuses and salary increases, the announcement that retirees will be exempted from one-time excise tax to facilitate travel has created excitement. While the bill on this subject was introduced in the Parliamentary committee, retirees started expecting to be exempted from the CIT. So can retirees be given a car without special consumption tax?
GOOD NEWS ABOUT FREE CAR RENTAL FOR RETIREERS?
The news “Good news for retirees who are exempt from income tax” spread on social networks has not yet been presented to the National Assembly as an official bill.
According to allegations spread on social networks following the bill in the National Assembly, a gradual reduction of SST for retirees who have completed a certain number of years of service or exceeded a certain age limit has been put on the agenda, with effect for domestically produced vehicles.
However, no law has yet come into effect.
PROPOSAL VEHICLES WITHOUT SCT ARE SUBMITTED TO THE COMMITTEE
Although a bill for pensioners, allowing them to buy vehicles without excise tax, has been introduced in the parliamentary committee, discussions are yet to take place. There is no indication that the bill will be implemented.
Since this situation worries millions of retirees, one should not rely on unfounded developments circulating on the internet.
VEHICLES ARE TAX-FREE AND PROCEDURES FOR 40 PERCENT OR MORE OF PEOPLE WITH ORTHOPEDIC DISABILITIES
With the amendment of the Excise Tax Law, the excise tax exemption will be applicable to people with orthopedic disabilities with a disability rate of 40% or more and disabled individuals determined to be unable to obtain a driver's license due to orthopedic disability, for the first time after 10 years, for the first purchase of a vehicle specified within the scope of the Law.
Vehicles purchased within the exemption cannot be sold for a certain period of time. Because unpaid SCT may be collected on sales before this period expires, vehicle ownership planning needs to be done carefully from the outset. With the new regulations, people with disabilities of 40% or more who have orthopedic disabilities and are therefore unable to get a driver's license will be able to buy a car exempt from special sales tax.
