Looks like they are tightening the screws on all vehicle related loopholes.

Yes I have a copy of the ministry circular. Cannot upload it due to certain restrictions. Take my word. It will be out in the papers soon.

What will happen to the hundred if not thousands of permits that were sold and ownership transferred?

Nothing I guess.

They paid a 10% tax or something when the transfer was made right ?

I believe they are no different from a non-permit car after that 1st transfer is made.

Correct me if am wrong.

The circular says wef 2015/12/10 so its pretty clear. Any transfer before that is valid. Problem will be for ppl who paid the transfer tax today but waited till tomorrow for submitting papers. We can expect a few crybabies soon.

Then they can form a pressure group and go on lobbying like those who ordered hybrids! It is a democratic right after all!!

I in fact don't support the permit selling business. In terms of government servant permits, I understand why it happens as my own sister is such a government servant. They do not actually get paid enough to be able to afford a decent vehicle, even under a permit without getting into significant debt. So for some, it has been more practical to sell the permit, and use the money to buy a modest car. This is the reality.

Govt servants permits were not transferable up to 5 years for a long time until MR changed the policy couple of years ago. What people used to do was sell the car without transfering the registered ownership.(so called open papers....)

I dont think the government's objective now is to give more permits.

I dont think the government's objective now is to give more permits.

one of my friend in ministry of finance told me the gov will revert it back to make permits transferable ...........

but very soon they will stop issuing permits for government servants, hamuduruwo etc..

One of my friend's neighbor's close relative's school mate's cousin's boyfriend's servant's uncle's driver's father's sister's husband said that also. He apparently works in the Ministry of Crab too.

It must be true, for sure.
