Car tax calculator (Estonia)
Per the official EMTA rules, the annual tax (M1) = €50 base part + CO₂ part (free up to 117 g/km, €3/g at 118–150, €3.50/g at 151–200, €4/g above 200) + weight part (€0.40/kg above 2,000 kg capped at €400; plug-in hybrids from 2,200 kg; EVs from 2,400 kg capped at €440). NEDC figures are multiplied by 1.21. If no CO₂ figure exists, it is calculated as power × 0.29 + curb weight × 0.07 + age × 4.92, minus 35 for diesel, 39/52 for petrol/diesel full hybrids (capped at 350 g/km). The CO₂ and weight parts decrease with age from year 5 (0.92) to 15 (0.10); cars over 20 years pay only the base part. Ages 16–19 use a linear estimate here. Vehicle age is counted in full years as of 1 January of the tax year – enter the year of first registration and the calculator derives the age.
