The "Draft Law on Amendments to the Tax Laws and Certain Laws" presented to the Parliament by the AK Party includes an important regulation regarding vehicle sales. With the draft, a proportional notary fee application is introduced for both new and second-hand vehicle sales.
A FEE OF 0.2% WILL BE APPLIED
According to the new regulation, the exemption from fees for second-hand vehicle sales is being removed. A notary fee of 0.2% will be charged on the sale price, and this amount cannot be less than 1,000 TL.
Example calculation:
- Vehicle worth 1 million TL → 2,000 TL fee
- Vehicle worth 2 million TL → 4,000 TL fee
- Vehicle worth 5 million TL → 10,000 TL fee
This application will also be valid for the initial registration processes of new vehicles. Thus, the existing fee exemptions for sales and transfer transactions will be completely removed.
THE VEHICLE MARKET CONTINUES TO GROW
In the January-September period of 2025, the Turkish automobile and light commercial vehicle market reached 927,647 units, an increase of 9.15% compared to the previous year.
- Automobile sales: 742,687 units (9.98% increase)
- Light commercial vehicle sales: 184,960 units (5.92% increase)
In September, automobile sales increased by 26.77% to 88,274, while light commercial vehicle sales rose by 21.66% to 22,028 units. In the market, SUV vehicles stood out with a 62.7% share.
IT MAY COME INTO FORCE IN NOVEMBER
The draft law will be discussed in the TBMM Planning and Budget Commission next week. If it passes through the General Assembly of the Parliament after the commission process, the regulation is expected to come into force at the beginning of November.
