“How to Claim the Italian Government’s Retrofit Bonus for Electric Cars”

Would you like to convert your car into an electric car? Now you can do it by claiming this bonus.

Not everyone has the budget to own and maintain an electric vehicle, especially in these times where costs are much higher than normal. Receiving help in this sense would be welcome, this is obvious, but we cannot hope that it comes from heaven just because we want it. Fortunately, the Italian government has made a bonus available for this very reason, and requesting it is as simple as it is intuitive.

Let’s talk about Bonus Retrofit, useful for all those who intend to convert their means of transport into a beautiful and affordable electric car. Until two years ago it was not possible to do so due to the fact that the funds had run out, but now the situation has improved: the availability of the past has finally returned. After all, it was only necessary to wait, even if it was not at all easy to do.

Retrofit bonus, details and maximum repayment: claim it now

The contribution that the government offers is equal to 60% of the expenses incurred from November 10, 2021 to December 31, 2022 for the conversion of the electric car. We will be able to receive back up to a maximum of 3,500 euros, which can only be requested by those who have carried out the requalification of vehicles belonging to the following categories: M1, M1G, M2, M2G, M3, M3G, N1 and N1G. But how do you claim the bonus?

The application must be submitted through the appropriate pre-established platform, therefore that dedicated to Consap in short words. It will be necessary to use the SPID, and an online form must also be completed where the documentation relating to the costs contained and the technical specifications of the converted vehicle must be attached. It is true that this is routine general information, but without it it would not be possible to request it.

The updated single circulation document, therefore the current one, must also be attached, as well as proof of the payments of the stamp duty and the provincial transcription tax. Finished the compilation, complete with entering the IBANwe will have to wait for an eventual approval so that we can receive the funds established by the government.

We remind once again that the maximum is of 3,500 euros refundable, except for applications that cannot be accepted for various reasons. Pay attention to the documents you attach, to the dates and to the various requests that the Retrofit Bonus imposes to ensure that Italian citizens can request the refund and receive it within the time limit allowed.
