Documentation

Together with the request, you must provide documentation that proves that the vehicle is to be used for the regular transportation of a disabled person who uses a wheelchair, or who has reduced mobility.

Phases of the procedure/service

Start: At the request of a party, through an application signed by both the purchaser and the disabled person, provided that they are different from the purchaser (Form 04). Disability or reduced mobility must be proven and the vehicle's purpose must be the regular transport of disabled people in wheelchairs or with reduced mobility.

Procedure: If the requirements are met, a provisional acceptance agreement will be issued, which allows the acquisition of the vehicle by applying the 4% rate. Subsequently, the seller of the vehicle via the Internet, or the applicant himself in person at the Administration offices, must communicate the data corresponding to the acquisition of the vehicle. If they are not correct, a proposal for a negative resolution will be issued, granting the interested party a hearing.

End: If correct, a definitive agreement recognising the right to apply the 4% rate will be issued. Taxpayers who deliver vehicles for the regular transport of disabled people in wheelchairs or with reduced mobility may only apply the reduced tax rate when the purchaser proves his right through the document containing the relevant agreement of the State Tax Administration Agency, which must be kept for the duration of the limitation period.
