Starting June 15, 2026, the Brazilian city of Porto Seguro (Bahia state) will charge an environmental protection fee (TPA) for incoming vehicles. The measure was approved by Mayor Jânio Natal in November 2025 and applies to the main urban area as well as the tourist districts of Trancoso and Arraial d’Ajuda. The fee is collected via automatic license plate recognition, without toll booths. Vehicles staying less than 8 hours are exempt, except rental cars. Residents of Porto Seguro and neighboring municipalities (50% discount) are also exempt. Non-payment results in a 50% surcharge. In 2025, the city received about 1.4 million tourists.

German Federal Fiscal Court: Luxury motorhome sales can be tax-exempt

Germany's highest fiscal court has ruled that the short-term resale of expensive motorhomes is not necessarily subject to speculation tax. The decision stems from a case where a Saxon couple sold a motorhome for €315,000 a few months after purchase. The court classified the motorhome as an item for personal use, which is an exception to the one-year tax rule for private sales.
