The 3 ways of paying road tax
After printing the notice, through the myCar platform, you can pay the road tax in three different ways:
From the transaction machines located in the banks. In this case, you will be asked for the QR code, i.e. the icon located in the upper right corner of the notification page.
At the nearest bank or at an ELTA branch. And in this case, the notice should have been printed.
There is also the option of electronic payment through web banking. You will need to log into your bank’s app and then pay by filling in the 23-digit ‘RF’ code you will be prompted for, which is located in the center of the notification page.
What changes are being considered for road tax
The Ministry of Finance is considering the possibility of readjusting the traffic fees due to the shortfalls in revenue. According to reports, such a plan is under consideration by the ministry, and is expected to be implemented immediately after the completion of the payment of traffic fees for 2024, scheduled for February 29.
At the same time, the ministry is also considering the possibility of providing incentives for the withdrawal of vehicles over 20 years old, with the aim of reducing their circulation.
The main problem for the ministry is that over the past 13 years, when emissions-based road taxes have been in place, many vehicles with modern anti-pollution technology have been sold, causing a drop in tax revenue.
Revenues from road taxes amount to approximately 1.2 billion euros annually. However, the current calculation method does not appear to meet demand and revenue shortfalls are predicted in the medium term. For this reason, adjustments are expected in order to maintain the target of 1.2 billion euros.
