Since the Russian car industry was actually paralyzed by Western sanctions, the idea arose among the masses to at least temporarily remove import duties on foreign cars. And

Russia now even has record low import duties on cars. Now the excise tax on new cars is only 15%. But in order to import a new foreign car, the legal person must pay 178,400 rubles to his country of birth – this is the rate of the recycling fee. If the displacement is more than two liters – already 281,600! And then on the rise.
Therefore, it would make much more sense to cancel the “scrap” … However, the deputy of the State Duma, Ivan Sukharev, believes that the fee should be left, but the import duties should be reduced. In his opinion, the country should introduce a 5 percent tariff, which can only be used by individuals.
However, it must be understood that it does not go further than the Commissioner’s initiative. After all, the main task of the authorities is to support the Russian car industry in order to avoid unemployment. And this strategy does not fit in with the reduction of customs tariffs.
