core changes

Individuals import cars from Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. The calculation of scrapping tax is unified with that of legal persons to make up for the difference between the low tax rate in the union and the Russian standard.

The scrapping tax is calculated according to the "basic tax rate × coefficient". The basic amount of passenger cars is 20,000 rubles, and the truck or passenger cars is 150,000 rubles. It will continue until 2030, with an annual index of 10% to 20% every year. Increase.

The gray import channels are useless, and the cost performance ratio of channels at regular dealers is quite obvious.
