In recent days, one of the most discussed topics on social media has been the tax exemption for hybrid cars. As the end of 2025 approaches, the question of whether these exemptions will be extended is causing serious concern for both car buyers and market sellers.
🧾 What’s happening?
Currently, in Azerbaijan, hybrid cars with a manufacturing date of less than 3 years and engine capacity not exceeding 2500 cmÂł are exempt from Value Added Tax (VAT) for import and sale.
However, this exemption expires at the end of the year, raising the question:
“Will the exemption be extended, or will hybrid cars become more expensive from 2026?”
💬 Expert opinion: “Decision will be made in the second half of the year”
Economist Vugar Bayramov told Oxu.Az that the main purpose of these exemptions is to accelerate the import of hybrid cars into the country.
