IS THE IMPORTED VEHICLE SUBJECT TO TAXES AND DUTIES?

Yes. Whether brand-new or used, purchased or donated, the imported vehicle is subject to 40% Customs duty, 10% VAT and Ad Valorem Tax from 15% to 100% depending on its piston displacement. Its book value serves as the tax base and not the purchase price nor the acquisition cost. The book value is sourced from universally accepted motor vehicle reference books such as the Red Book, Blue Book, World Book depending on the origin of the imported vehicle.

Kabayan advice lang po its better na ibenta mo kotse mo ska ka bumili ng bago sa pilipinas kesa ipadala mo pa sa atin bka mas mahal pa yung tax na babayaran mo sa kotse mo kesa dun sa kotse mo mismo c manny pacquiao triple ang bayad ng tax ng kotse nya sa pinas umabot ng million biruin mo naman ferrari inuwi nya bka yung sayo nasa 3 hundred thousand bbili nalang ako ng bago sa pinas...

it is quite hard to ship a vehicle in the philippines. first, you cannot ship a car having the latest model. you may ship cars with the year model 2005 and under. you must consult the fees from the shipping lines or sea cargo freight. try calling Sky Freight which is owned by Eddie de Guzman. You also need to consider the custom duties. bear in mind that we have a lot of corrupt people in the Philippines. Baka ang halaga ng sasakyan mo dito is mas mahal pa ibabayad mo na tax and sa padulas na ibibigay mo sa government.

good luck!
