Cyprus road tax
Road tax calculator
Calculate your estimated annual road tax based on the latest Road Transport Department of Cyprus (RTD) regulations. Check rates for both current and older vehicle classifications instantly.
How road tax is calculated
For most vehicles, the annual amount depends on CO₂ emissions. For vehicles manufactured before September 2014, fuel type and Euro standard also affect the final total.
This calculator applies to vehicles registered after January 1, 2014. For older classifications, please contact the RTD directly.
Available periods
Payments can be made for three, six, or nine months, or for the full calendar year.
Electric vehicles
Fully electric vehicles are currently 100% exempt from the annual road tax, supporting the island's transition to sustainable mobility.
What you need
Required for payment: valid MOT, active insurance policy, vehicle registration, and the last three digits of the owner's ID or ARC.
Important details
