The Government Approved A New IPVA Law That Grants Partial Exemption For Vehicles Up To R$ 120 Thousand. See Who Can Request And How!
A piece of news that promises to delight thousands of Brazilians: the recent regulation of the Vehicle Property Tax (IPVA) brings discounts and exemptions that few expected.
But before getting excited, it is important to know if you are one of those who can take advantage of this news.
What many do not know is that the measure, approved by the Legislative Assembly of Sergipe (Alese), benefits only Sergipe drivers.
-
Cheaper than expected and with a cut of up to 50% in taxes, the Golf GTI may arrive in Brazil at a reduced price after the EU-Mercosur agreement and Volkswagen’s strategy that promises to turn the tide by 2041.
-
The Chinese electric car that travels 1,036 km on one charge, accelerates to 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds, and recharges in 5 minutes — half the price of a Porsche
-
An electric car caught fire on a street in Curitiba, and the driver only escaped because he noticed the smoke in time to stop and exit the vehicle before the flames took over everything.
-
BYD better watch out because a new Chinese company is arriving in Brazil with an electric vehicle similar to the Kwid that promises to cost less and steal customers right in its first year of operation in the country.
The partial exemption of the IPVA was directed exclusively to vehicles from the state, limiting the impact of the new law to a specific audience.
Who Will Really Benefit?
According to the website FDR, not all Brazilians will have the benefit. The decision, exclusive to Sergipe, guarantees partial exemption only for vehicles worth up to R$ 70 thousand.
However, the new measure raises this limit, covering automobiles valued up to R$ 120 thousand with a partial exemption on the amount of R$ 70 thousand.
What Are The Criteria To Obtain The Exemption?
The criteria to obtain this exemption are not as simple as they seem. The measure benefits people with physical disabilities, visual impairments, severe intellectual disabilities, Down syndrome, and those diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
These individuals must follow a specific procedure to request the benefit. It is essential to access the website of the State Department of Finance and present the required documentation.
Only then will it be possible to obtain the partial IPVA exemption.
How To Request The IPVA Exemption?
The request can be made directly on the website of the State Department of Finance. The process involves:
- Access to the official portal;
- Presentation of all required documentation;
- Payment of the service fee.
With these steps, the Sergipe taxpayer will be able to enjoy the partial exemption starting in 2025, as informed by the website FDR.
Cancellation Of Debts For Motorcycles
Another novelty of the new legislation is the cancellation of debts related to the IPVA for two-wheeled vehicles, but only for those with engines up to 50cc.
This measure may relieve many motorcycle owners who were facing accumulated debts.
IPVA: What Is It And How Does It Work?
The IPVA is a state tax based on the market value of the vehicle. A rate ranging from 1% to 2.4% is applied to this value.
The collection is intended to cover public spending on essential areas such as health, security, education, and transportation.
What Changes With The New Law?
The most significant change is the increase in the limit for partial exemption, which went from R$ 70 thousand to R$ 120 thousand. This means that more people will be able to reduce part of their IPVA amount.
The forecast is that more than 4.2 thousand Sergipe taxpayers will benefit.
Impact On The Automotive Market
This new law may influence not only vehicle owners but also the automotive market in Sergipe.
Manufacturers like Fiat, Volkswagen, Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota, which have a strong presence in Brazil, may see an increase in demand for vehicles within this exemption range.
The reduction in IPVA makes acquiring vehicles more affordable, especially for popular models and SUVs, categories widely offered by these manufacturers.
According to experts, measures like this can stimulate the market, generating a positive impact on the local economy.
As it stands, the new law brings partial relief, but it is still limited. Only Sergipe residents, with vehicles up to R$ 120 thousand and belonging to the benefited groups, can count on this advantage.
For many, the news may seem limited, but it is an important step towards making the IPVA more accessible.
And you, do you believe this measure should be expanded to all of Brazil? Will other states also adopt this partial IPVA exemption? Leave your opinion in the comments!
