From January 1, 2025, all Danish drivers will once again have more money in their pockets to even own their cars. This is the result of a political agreement from December 2020.
Danish drivers will once again have to dig deeper into their pockets when vehicle taxes increase on January 1, 2025.
The increase includes vehicle tax, green owner tax and CO2 owner tax and is a consequence of the agreement on the green transition of road transport from 2020.
The agreement, reached by the then government and a majority in the Folketing, dictates the periodic tax increases that will now once again affect Danish car owners. The new tax rates will be reflected in the levies for 2025.
The board announced this in a press release on Friday morning.
The Danish Motor Vehicle Authority's website has a calculator that drivers can use to find out how much more they will have to pay in taxes in the new year.
The Danish Motor Vehicle Authority encourages car owners to use the indicative tax calculator on the authority's website.
Here you can get an overview of future taxes by entering information about the vehicle, including type, fuel, registration date and fuel consumption or CO2 emissions.
The vehicle's first registration date determines which type of tax you have to pay. For example, if you have an older car, you pay a vehicle tax. While newer cars are typically subject to a green ownership tax or CO2 ownership tax.
However, no cars are exempt from the tax increases. Boosted has previously reported how even vintage cars that only drive a few kilometers per year are also affected by the increases. Increases that will not stop until 2027.
