1. What fees are involved in transferring ownership of a used motorbike?

1.1. Registration fee

According to Article 6 of Decree 10/2022/ND-CP, the basis for calculating registration fees is the taxable value and the registration fee rate (%).

Registration fee = Taxable value x Registration fee rate (%)

(1) Registration fee calculation price = New asset value x Percentage of remaining quality

In there:

- The new asset value is determined according to the guidelines in Clause 2, Article 7 of Decree 10/2022/ND-CP and Clause 2, Article 3 of Circular 13/2022/TT-BTC.

In cases where a car or motorcycle is not listed in the Price List, the registration fee will be determined based on the price of an equivalent vehicle type listed in the Price List; where an equivalent vehicle type is defined as a car or motorcycle of the same origin, brand, engine displacement or power, the same number of passengers allowed (including the driver), and a vehicle type with characters equivalent to the vehicle type of the car or motorcycle already listed in the Price List.

In cases where the price list includes multiple equivalent vehicle models, the tax authority will determine the registration fee based on the highest applicable price. If no equivalent vehicle model can be determined, the tax authority will use the database specified in Clause 2, Article 7 of Decree 10/2022/ND-CP to determine the registration fee.

- The percentage (%) of remaining quality of the asset subject to registration is determined as follows:

Time used	Percentage (%) of remaining quality of the asset subject to registration fee.
New assets	100%
In one year	90%
From over 1 to 3 years	70%
From over 3 to 6 years	50%
From over 6 to 10 years	30%
Over 10 years	20%

The useful life of an asset is calculated from the year of manufacture to the year of registration fee declaration. If the year of manufacture cannot be determined, the useful life of the asset is calculated from the year the asset was first put into use to the year of registration fee declaration.
