Recycling collection may tighten again in Russia.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade proposes to tighten the recycling fee for cars imported through Belarus, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan with a reduced duty. Owners may require additional payment.
Cars for personal use must be registered within a month and not sold within a year, otherwise the toll will be recalculated at the full rate. The changes may come into force in May 2027 and will affect cars over 30 years old. The purpose of this is to eliminate loopholes to reduce recycling collection.
