Approximately 6,7 million cars could be exempt from paying IPVA if a new law is passed. The proposal aims to unify the IPVA exemption rules for vehicles manufactured over 20 years ago, offering a break for millions of drivers
Owners of carros older ones are about to get a financial problem. A new law (PEC 72/2023) approved by the Senate seeks to exempt vehicles manufactured over 20 years ago from IPVA , unifying the rules that currently vary from state to state. It is estimated that the proposal will benefit around 6,7 million cars throughout the country, including vehicles from states where this authorization does not exist, such as Minas Gerais e Pernambuco, according to the newsmotor website.
Currently, the rules of IPVA exemption are different in each federative unit. In some states, such as Amapá e Roraima , authorization already occurs after 10 years of manufacture. Other states, such as São Paulo e Rio Grande do Sul , already follow the 20-year rule, but places like Santa Catarina , Alagoas , Minas Gerais e Tocantins will have to adapt to change.
How can IPVA authorization work?

Currently, some states offer freedom from 10, 20 or even 30 years of manufacture, while in others the exemption simply does not exist. With the PEC 72 / 2023, vehicles manufactured over 20 years ago throughout Brazil will be automatically exempt.
