The Tax Agency (DGII) has announced the start of driver circulation permits (marbetes), to be issued at the same rates as in 2014. Nevertheless, the 2015 National Budget includes implementing 1% of the value stipulated in the 2012 Tax Reform Law (Law 253-12). Due to protests, the tax (Impuesto de Circulacion Vehicular – ICV) application of the tax was postponed in 2013 and again in 2014.
This year, car owners need to pay RD$1,200 for vehicles manufactured before 2009 and RD$2,200 for those manufactured as of 2010.
