Government says it will maintain IUC value.

The Government today rejected any increase in the IUC (Vehicle Tax), both for cars manufactured before 2007 and after that date, clarifying that the proposed change refers only to the timing of the tax payment and the possibility of installments.

"Given the circulation of false information, particularly on social media, it is important to clarify that the Government will not proceed with any increase in the IUC [Single Circulation Tax] for vehicles manufactured before or after 2007," emphasizes a clarification released by the Ministry of Finance.

The changes being prepared, included in the Tax Simplification Agenda presented on January 16 of this year and which will be presented and discussed in the Assembly of the Republic, "only concern the timing of tax payment and the introduction of the possibility of payment in installments, in the case of amounts above 100 euros," he explains.

According to the Ministry of Finance, this change "facilitates voluntary compliance, reduces the risk of oversights, and avoids the application of fines."

Thus, he insists, "not only will there be no increase in the IUC (Vehicle Tax), but this measure will also alleviate the financial burden, especially for families with more than one vehicle."

In the proposed State Budget Law for 2026 (OE2026) submitted by the Government to the Assembly of the Republic, the Government proposes to maintain the surcharge that is already in effect for the IUC (Vehicle Tax).
