The relevant draft law No. 5624 on amendments to the law “About some questions of import on customs territory of Ukraine and registration of vehicles,” adopted as a basis and in General.
The author of the bill Robert gorvat said that in the EU the average period between the introduction of new standards is five years, whereas in Ukraine according to current legislation ekostandart “Euro-5” introduced from 1 January 2016, and the introduction of Euro 6 is scheduled for 1 January 2018. According to the author, the introduction in Ukraine of Euro 6 next year will actually make it impossible to import into Ukraine of cars, trucks, special vehicles, ambulances older than 2015, which will result in a significant increase in the price of used cars and cost of production and import of new cars.
