Why is vehicle tax high in Nepal?
Nepal is a landlocked country, as well as it is one of the developing countries where each and every infrastructure are not soo well managed. As there is no proper scientific technology used in order to develop /introduced something new. In the case of a vehicle tax high, the country had to order the vehicles from other countries as vehicles are not developed in Nepal. Some of the reason is as follows;
- We import maximum products from abroad as if the government decreases tax rate then people start using more vehicles so that there is needed to import more products. If there are more vehicles on the road, it means we would need more petroleum products to run those vehicles.
- Due to improper infrastructure and small streets, if there are more vehicles in Nepal, where a large number of vehicles enter at the same time then it causes huge traffic on the roads.
- In Nepal, Auto-industry is not capable to contribute a large amount of taxes or different sorts of contributions. While foreign currency deposits will not create any rational economic benefit for the country so the nation will have to give up a majority to it.
