Starting Oct 1st, 2022, ICBC has a new method to calculate transfer taxes on used vehicles. Vehicles not reflecting their prescribed values require an appraisal to reduce the tax you pay. Valid for up-to 30 days after registering your vehicle. DT6 Is BC's First Remote Vehicle Appraisal Service! remoteappraisals.ca We are always focused on your value! Fair, fixed prices. Same day service. In person or remote appraisals. Quality professional reports. ICBC compliant process. Do I need an Appraisal? You may choose to have your vehicle appraised if you believe its value is less than the value ICBC assigns it. ICBC uses the Canadian Black Book Average Wholesale Value. If your vehicle is less than average you will likely benefit from an appraisal. If this is the case, the transfer tax you pay is calculated from the greater of the appraisal value or purchase price (declared on the transfer form). Some indicators that you may benefit from our appraisal: You payed less than the "Black Book Value". Excessive wear. Mechanical issues. Vehicle damage. Requires specific or general maintenance. Poor condition, or non-working functionalities. Poor fuel economy, compared to new. Vehicles out of warranty. Missing parts. Leaking fluids. Low tread tires. Rust.
