With the goal of promoting sustainable green transportation, improving air quality, and building a long-term sustainable mobility system, Vietnam is accelerating its transition to electric vehicles (EVs). Various policies and initiatives have been implemented to encourage and support the shift from gasoline-powered vehicles to EVs.
Two More Years of Registration Fee Exemption for EVs
According to a newly issued government decree, the 100% exemption on registration fees for EVs has been extended for an additional two years, until February 28, 2027. After this period, the registration fee will be reduced to 50%. These policies aim to accelerate the adoption of EVs, aligning with the country’s target of having electric, hybrid, and green energy vehicles (including those powered by solar energy, biofuels, or other renewable fuels) account for approximately 18-22% of total market sales by 2030, equivalent to 180,000-242,000 vehicles.
