FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS THE CO2 TAX ON CAR IMPORTS?
In 2012, the law on the reduction of CO2 emissions, or – in the vernacular – CO2 tax in Switzerland for Auto Import was introduced. This gives the federal government the opportunity to influence the CO2 pollution caused by vehicles by means of an incentive tax.
