April 4, 2012
From the next 1° July the Helvetic tax on the which proportioned heavy traffic to performances (TTPCP) will endure an increase with the single exclusion of the class vehicles Euro YOU. The TTPCP comprises three tariff categories, established according to the class of emission of the vehicles.
On 1° July for the tariff category the 1 rate for ton and kilometers will go up from 3,07 to 3,10 cent for means of class Euros 0, I and II and from 2,76 to 2,79 cent for means of class Euros II with antiparticolato filter. For tariff category 2 the rate will go up from 2,66 to 2,69 cent for Euros III and from 2,39 to 2,42 cent for Euros III with antiparticolato filter. For tariff category 3 the increase will be from 2,26 to 2,28 cent for vehicles Euros IV and V, while for the average Euros YOU the rate will come down from 2,26 to 2,05 cent.
The Federal Office of the Transports has remembered that the TTPCP is introduced in 2001, and that, as expected by the Agreement on the terrestrial transports, the rates of the tax are increased hand in hand with the increase of the limit of weight of the trucks to 40 tons progressively. However the rates never are not indexed, but it they will be exactly from the next 1° July. This will involve an increase of 2,85 franchi Swiss on the medium tax 290 franchi currently collected for a truck of 40 tons and a distance of 300 kilometers.
