The effects of a restructure of the registration tax
The effects of a restructure of the registration tax
Original title: Effekterne af en omlægning af registreringsafgiften
The Danish Car Importers has asked Copenhagen Economics to analyse the effects on vehicle purchases and the consequent effects on greenhouse gas emissions by changing the current value-based registration tax to a so-called technical registration tax based on the vehicle’s CO2-emissions and weight.
Such a tax change would be able to bring the following effects:
Improve safety equipment in cars and thereby reduce traffic accidents
Promote climate friendly features in cars
Make it more attractive to buy larger and more expensive cars
Greatly reduce current administrative complexity
The study is commissioned by The Danish Car Importers.
