In 2023, the economic fluctuations greatly affected the automotive industry, the number of registered cars in Vietnam decreased to only 296,634 cars, equivalent to the level of 2020 and lower than the 300,000 cars in 2021 and 2022.

According to the General Statistics Office, the average monthly income of workers nationwide was 97.7 million VND/year, while the car ownership rate was 32 cars per 1,000 people.

With this income, owning a car is still beyond the reach of the majority of workers.

In Vietnam, personal cars are subject to 3 main taxes: import duty, special consumption tax, and value-added tax. These are all indirect taxes that the car buyers have to pay. Moreover, these three types of taxes are stacked on top of each other, so they usually account for 30-60% of the selling price, depending on the car model. In addition, buyers also have to pay a registration fee of 10-12%, calculated on the selling price depending on the locality, not to mention other fees.
