From the duality of car import approval clauses to facilitating the import of electrical appliances

Khodrocar -  at the same time as announcing the regulations for the import of zero-rated cars, the approval of the commercial profit of electric products and the removal of the price ceiling for these cars was announced by the head of the Trade Development Organization to make it clear that the Ministry of industry is serious about the development of electrification.

According to Mehdi Zaighmi, in the approval of the import of electric cars, the commercial profit of 1 to 26% is considered, also, the commercial profit of electric cars is considered to be 1% up to 20,000 euros, 11% above 20,000 to 30,000 euros, and 26% above 30,000 euros.

It is expected that with the implementation of this resolution, we will see a variety of imported products.

This situation is that in another resolution announced yesterday by the Council of Ministers, the price limit of 20 thousand euros for importing cars is still in place.

This regulation emphasizes that it is still allowed to import passenger cars with a price of less than 20,000 euros, and the priority is to import economy cars of less than 10,000 euros.

Also, the import of electric passenger cars up to 40,000 euros is also allowed, and the import of passenger cars to free commercial-industrial zones is subject to the import of hybrid and electric cars up to 40,000 euros within the framework of the laws and regulations of the said areas and this regulation, and with This process raises the question of what will be the status of electrical imports?

Meanwhile, a look at the trend of the cars unveiled by the companies shows that so far none of the import options has been less than 10,000 Euros and practically no economic cars have been imported. Regardless of this decision, with the current euro price and taking into account tariffs, numbering costs and other costs, even a 10,000 euro car cannot be considered an economic car, because this car has a price of about one billion tomans, which is undoubtedly possible. Not everyone can buy it.

Providing foreign currency for imported cars was one of the reasons for the delay in the implementation of this decree. The central bank's stonewalling on the lack of currency on the one hand and decisions such as relying on currency of foreign origin and finally currency from exports on the other hand should be considered as the main reasons for the delay.

In Article 3 of this regulation, the status of foreign exchange supply for imports was finally announced and it was determined that the foreign exchange sources needed in compliance with the Central Bank's foreign exchange regulations are from the foreign currency obtained from the export of goods and services, foreign investment with priority in public transportation and other sources approved by the bank. To be provided centrally.

It seems that the necessary coordination has been made between the relevant agencies in the field of car import, in which case there is a possibility of car import boom.

Ibn, however, it was previously announced that one of the main reasons for the slowness of imports is the inconsistency between related institutions, including the Central Bank and the Ministry of Industry.

According to the new bylaws, the commercial interest of car imports is prepared and approved by the Cabinet of Ministers in cooperation with the relevant ministries, which facilitates the import.

Economic cars and less than 20 thousand euros, the commercial profit of cars with a price range higher than this figure should be considered higher than the tariff set in the book of export and import regulations and prevent the formation of any special economic privileges for importers.

In Article 5 of this regulation, the import of automobiles is dependent on having a contract with foreign or intermediary companies with a delegation letter from the main company, and in the note of Article 4 of this regulation, it is emphasized that the issuance of vehicle order registration requires the approval of the supply of spare parts and the provision of after-sales services. Sales and other technical criteria.

Now, we have to see with these approvals and finally its notification, will we witness the acceleration of imports? According to the plans, 60,000 cars were imported into the country by the end of the year, which was later reduced to 40,000 cars, while the latest customs statistics indicate that more than 6,000 cars were imported into the country, which is definitely With the current thirst of the car market, this figure is not very impressive.
