Application for refund of annual weight-based motor vehicle tax
If the vehicle is de-registered and remains de-registered through to the end of the period, you can apply for the tax for the de-registered period to be refunded.
Application for refund of annual weight-based motor vehicle tax is changed
The new practice means that you cannot apply for refund of annual weight-based motor vehicle tax until the period for which you are applying for is terminated.
The owner of the vehicle at the time of the application will be the one entitled to the refund. If you are applying for refund of annual weight-based motor vehicle tax without being the owner of the vehicle, you must attach a power of attorney to your application.
The change of practice is introduced from and including period 2 - 2025. This means that you cannot apply for a refund for this period before 1 January 2026. The new practice also applies to earlier periods.
We cannot process applications for refunds of the weight-based motor vehicle tax following de-registration until after the period has ended.
No refund in June or December
Avregistreringsperioden regnes i hele måneder frem til terminen avsluttes, med unntak av måneden kjøretøyet avregistreres. Derfor innvilges det ikke refusjon for avregistreringer gjennomført i juni eller desember.
The vehicle must be de-registered through to the end of the period
To be refunded the tax, the vehicle must be de-registered through to the end of the period (30 June/31 December every year).
