The Parliament of Georgia has already drafted a bill that will abolish import VAT for electric motorcycles, quadrocycles and mopeds to help reduce air pollution.

The decision will also reduce noise. Most transport in Georgia currently works on petrol and diesel that damages the environment,” head of the parliament’s Environment Protection and Natural Resources Committee Kakha Kuchava said.

He stressed supporting the clean technology was one of the obligations taken by Georgia through the Georgia-EU Association Agreement.

Kuchava reminded the Government of Georgia has already freed the import of electric cars from excise and import fees.
