Norway’s Shift: Electric Car VAT Exemption Replaced with Subsidy Program

  • Norway is replacing the VAT exemption on electric cars with a new subsidy program starting from January 2023
  • Nearly 80% of car sales in Norway in September 2021 were electric vehicles
  • Experts question the fairness of VAT exemptions, as they benefit more affluent households
  • The new subsidy scheme will provide financial support equivalent to a VAT exemption up to a sales price of NOK 500,000
  • Electric cars priced under NOK 500,000 will not be affected by the new scheme
  • Lawmakers are updating VAT regulations to adapt to the demands of the new economy
