Convention  on the Taxation of Road Vehicles Engaged in International Goods Transport

Done at Geneva on 14 December 1956

The Contracting Parties,

DESIRING to facilitate international goods transport by road,

HAVE AGREED as follows:

Article 1

For the purpose of this Convention:

(a) The term "vehicles" shall mean all self-propelled road vehicles and all trailers for coupling to such vehicles whether imported with the vehicle or separately;

(b) The term "international goods transport" shall mean the industrial or commercial transport of goods with or without remuneration when the route taken crosses at least one frontier between two countries;

(c) The term "taxes or charges on transport" shall mean:

Turnover taxes and taxes of a similar kind, such as, for example, taxes on added value;

Fees for the issue of transport licences or other necessary documents;

Taxes or supplementary taxes payable on account of the transport operation concerned, over and above the taxes chargeable solely for the right to possess a vehicle or put it on the road.

Article 2

Vehicles which are registered in the territory of one of the Contracting Parties and are temporarily imported in the course of international goods transport into the territory of another Contracting Party shall, under the conditions laid down below, be exempted from the taxes and charges levied on the circulation or possession of vehicles in the territory of that Contracting Party. This exemption shall not apply to tolls, taxes or charges on consumption, or taxes or charges on transport.

Article 3

1. This exemption shall be granted in the territory of each Contracting Party so long as the conditions laid down in the Customs regulations in force in that territory for the temporary admission without payment of import duties and import taxes of the vehicles referred to in article 2, and the conditions laid down in the regulations in force for the authorization of the transport concerned are fulfilled.

2. Nevertheless, each Contracting Party may exclude from the benefit of this exemption any vehicle which it may authorize to engage in transport when the points of departure and of destination are both situated within its territory.

FINAL PROVISIONS

(c) by acceding to it.

2. Such countries as may participate in certain activities of the Economic Commission for Europe in accordance with paragraph 11 of the Commission's Terms of Reference may become Contracting Parties to this Convention by acceding thereto after its entry into force.

2.
