The Vietnamese government has increased import tax rates on cars and automobile parts, it has emerged.

Following earlier tax hikes in this area, the Ministry of Finance has announced that import taxes on wholly assembled cars have been raised to 83%, from the previous rate of 70%.

Imported car parts will also see a 3-5% increase, to 25%.

The new rates came into force on 22nd April, the Ministry announced.

According to reports, however, the increased rates are not expected to hit sales in the automotive sector, as there are still strong levels of demand for its products amongst the populace.
