Caravan tax calculator for Germany
For the purposes of calculating vehicle tax, caravans are considered to be trailers. Thus, as with other trailers, the calculation is based on the permissible total weight.
Info: Caravan vs. motorhome
Caravans are considered as trailers in the motor vehicle tax law sense and are taxed accordingly according to weight. Unlike motorhomes , they do not have their own drive and therefore do not emit any pollutant emissions. The calculation of the motor vehicle tax for motorhomes depends on the respective pollutant class.
How is the tax for caravans calculated?
Following the calculation of the tax for trailers, the caravan tax is calculated at 7.46 € per 200 kg weight or part thereof, and the amount is rounded down to exact euros. However, the maximum amount of the trailer tax is 373 € as long as the total weight of the caravan is less than 10 tons. Heavier trailer combinations require a towing vehicle approved for this purpose and receive a higher trailer surcharge.
Can caravans be exempted from tax?
If a caravan is permanently on private property and is not driven on public roads, it is exempt from motor vehicle tax. It is not possible to be exempted and to obtain a green license plate number, as is the case for some other trailers, but the vehicle tax can be reduced by other means: Since for many people the use of the caravan is highly dependent on the weather, a seasonal license plate, by which the caravan is only registered in a specified period, is a good way to reduce the annual tax for caravans.
