The GHG premium is always valid for a calendar year and is paid out again in the following year – in whatever amount. If the new car customer has registered his electric car for the GHG premium, the car is blocked for a new GHG premium application until the end of the current calendar year in the event of a short-term change of ownership.
Renewed premium registration only in the following year
Only in the following year can the second owner register their vehicle for the first time with the Federal Environment Agency and then receive the GHG bonus – again for the current year. This also applies accordingly in the years to come.
In order to collect the GHG bonus, an e-car owner only has to keep his car until the bonus has arrived in his account. For reasons of transparency and fairness, a seller should inform the buyer about the claiming of the GHG quota when the vehicle is handed over.
