Vietnam car import taxes are complex, involving high Import Duties ( up to 70% from non-FTA nations), a 10% VAT, and a steep Special Consumption Tax (SCT) that can exceed 100% for luxury vehicles, plus registration fees, making imported cars very expensive, though Free Trade Agreements (FTAs like ASEAN/EVFTA) offer reduced duties for specific regions and vehicles (especially EVs/green tech).
