Used Car Surcharge	$10,000 For used cars that are imported, they must not be more than 3 years old at the time of application for registration in Singapore.
Road Tax (For Petrol, Petrol-Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), CNG or Diesel Cars)	Your road tax is calculated based on the engine capacity of your car:
	Engine Capacity (EC) in cc	6-Monthly Road Tax
	EC ≤ 600	$200 x 0.782
	600 < EC ≤ 1,000	[$200 + $0.125(EC - 600)] x 0.782
	1,000 < EC ≤ 1,600	[$250 + $0.375(EC - 1,000)] x 0.782
	1,600 < EC ≤ 3,000	[$475 + $0.75(EC - 1,600)] x 0.782
	EC > 3,000	[$1,525 + $1(EC - 3000)] x 0.782
Road Tax (For Electric Cars)	Your road tax is calculated based on the Power Rating (PR) of your car’s motor(s). PR is the maximum power output of your car’s motor(s). For cars with more than one motor, the maximum power output is derived from the total combined power ratings of all motors.
	Power Rating (PR) in kW	6-Monthly Road Tax
	PR ≤ 7.5	$200 x 0.782
	7.5 < PR ≤ 30	[$200 + $2(PR – 7.5)] x 0.782
	30 < PR ≤ 230	[$250 + $3.75(PR – 30)] x 0.782
	PR > 230	[$1,525 + $10(PR – 230)] x 0.782
Additional Flat Component of Road Tax (For Electric Cars)	As announced at Budget 2020, fully electric vehicles are levied with an Additional Flat Component (AFC) to partially cover the fuel excise duties paid by equivalent Internal Combustion Engine vehicles. The AFC is payable as part of road tax at each renewal. If your car is registered before 1 January 2021, the AFC is waived for 3 years from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2023. The full AFC amount will apply from 1 January 2024. If your car is registered on or after 1 January 2021, the AFC you have to pay is as follows:
	Licensing Period	Annual Rate
	1 January 2021 - 31 December 2021	$200
	1 January 2022 - 31 December 2022	$400
	1 January 2023 onwards	$700
Road Tax (For Petrol-Electric Cars)	To find out your road tax, calculate road tax twice: first based on your car's engine capacity, then based on its maximum electric Power Rating (PR). The higher amount will be the road tax you have to pay. PR is the maximum power output of your car’s motor(s). For cars with more than one motor, the maximum power output is derived from the total combined power ratings of all motors.
Special Tax (For Diesel, Diesel-CNG or Diesel-Electric Cars) Note: From 1 January 2025, new registration of Diesel and Diesel-CNG cars will no longer be permitted.	Emission Standard	6-Monthly Special Tax Rate
	Pre-Euro IV compliant	6 times the Road Tax of an equivalent petrol-driven car less $100
	Euro IV compliant	$0.625 per cc for 6 months less $100 Subject to a minimum payment of $525 per 6 months
	Euro V or JPN2009 compliant	$0.20 per cc for 6 months less $100 Subject to a minimum payment of $100 per 6 months
Emission Rebate or Surcharge	An emission rebate or surcharge may apply under the Carbon Emission-Based Vehicle Scheme (CEVS), Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES) or enhanced VES, depending on when the car is registered.
Electric Vehicle Early Adoption Incentive (EEAI)	If you register a new or an imported used fully electric car from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2025, you will receive an EEAI of up to 45% off the ARF. The EEAI, given in the form of a rebate, is capped at $20,000 for registration from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2023 and $15,000 for registration from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. EEAI for registration from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025 will be announced in year 2024. The EEAI, coupled with the enhanced VES, allows you to enjoy combined cost savings of up to $40,000. EEAI and VES rebates will be used to offset your ARF. Electric cars registered from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021 are subject to a minimum ARF of $5,000 after utilisation of the EEAI/VES rebates (where appliable). To enable mass-market electric car buyers to benefit more fully from the combined EEAI and VES rebates, there is no minimum ARF for fully electric cars registered from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2024.
Preferential Additional Registration Fee (PARF) (For Cars registered with COEs obtained before the second COE bidding exercise in February 2023, or Cars that do not need to bid for COEs registered before 15 February 2023)	If a car is not more than 10 years old at the point of deregistration, a PARF rebate may be granted if the car is eligible for PARF benefits. The PARF rebate is calculated based on your car’s age when it is deregistered and the actual ARF paid.

ARF payable cars are subject to a PARF rebate cap of $60,000. The PARF rebate is calculated based on your car’s age when it is deregistered and the actual ARF paid.

Preferential Additional Registration Fee (PARF)	None

Emission Incentive or Surcharge

If your light goods vehicle (LGV) has a maximum laden weight (MLW) of not more than 3.5 metric tonnes, it may qualify for additional incentives based on its emissions under the Commercial Vehicle Emissions Scheme (CVES).

Under the CVES, vehicles are classified into Bands A, B, or C based on their worst-performing pollutant among the following: carbon dioxide (CO₂), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM) emissions.

In addition, if you register an electric or plug-in hybrid LGV, fossil fuels will need to be burnt to generate the electricity to charge your vehicle. Burning of fossil fuels generates CO₂. As such, you will need to add these additional CO₂ emissions, before referring to the table below. Your total CO₂ emissions would be the CO₂ emissions for the vehicle plus the CO₂generated from electricity consumption. (The CO₂ generated from electricity consumption is calculated at 0.4g of the CO₂ per watt-hour.)

You can refer to the tables below for more details on the Band A, B, and C classifications. If you are registering a LGV, for yourself or on behalf of someone else, that qualifies for Band A or B, please read the full terms and conditions (PDF, 144kB) pertaining to the CVES incentive. For clarifications on the CVES (such as on disbursement of CVES incentive, etc), you may send your enquires to NEA using the online feedback form.

Additional Flat Component of Road Tax (For Electric Goods-cum-Passengers Vehicles not exceeding 3.5 metric tonnes)	As announced at Budget 2020, fully electric vehicles are levied with an Additional Flat Component (AFC) to partially cover the fuel excise duties paid by equivalent Internal Combustion Engine vehicles. The AFC is payable as part of road tax at each renewal. If your goods-cum-passengers vehicle is registered before 1 January 2021, the AFC is waived for 3 years from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2023. The full AFC amount will apply from 1 January 2024. If your goods-cum-passengers vehicle is registered on or after 1 January 2021, the AFC you have to pay is as follows:
	Licensing Period	Annual Rate
	1 January 2021 - 31 December 2021	$50

Emission Incentive or Surcharge	An emission incentive or surcharge may apply under the Commercial Vehicle Emissions Scheme (CVES) if you register your goods-cum-passengers vehicle with maximum laden weight of not more than 3.5 metric tonnes from 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2025.
Preferential Additional Registration Fee (PARF)	None

Emission Incentive or Surcharge

If your goods-cum-passengers vehicle (GPV) has a maximum laden weight (MLW) of not more than 3.5 metric tonnes, it may qualify for additional incentives based on its emissions under the Commercial Vehicle Emissions Scheme (CVES).

In addition, if you register an electric or plug-in hybrid GPV, fossil fuels will need to be burnt to generate the electricity to charge your vehicle. Burning of fossil fuels generates CO₂. As such, you will need to add these additional CO₂ emissions, before referring to the table below. Your total CO₂ emissions would be the CO₂ emissions for the vehicle plus the CO₂generated from electricity consumption. (The CO₂ generated from electricity consumption is calculated at 0.4g of the CO₂ per watt-hour.)

You can refer to the tables below for more details on the Band A, B, and C classifications. If you are registering a GPV, for yourself or on behalf of someone else, that qualifies for Band A or B, please read the full terms and conditions (PDF, 144kB) pertaining to the CVES incentive. For clarifications on the CVES (such as on disbursement of CVES incentive, etc), you may send your enquires to NEA using the online feedback form.
