The Costa Rican car property tax, commonly referred to as Marchamo , is among the highest in Latin America, with rates that can go up to 3.5% of the fiscal value of the vehicle yearly. When compared to the Costa Rican minimum wage (₡331,516.22 a month, equivalent to US$ 597.33), the tax on an average US$ 15,000 (₡8,600,000) car can be ₡302,000 (US$ 525), or 80% to 120% of

It was introduced in the European market in June 1983, and in Canada in 1984 for

801-484: A month's pay. Even though Costa Ricans receive a yearly bonus equivalent to a month's salary, the property tax negates this for most car owners, which has led to calls for tax law reform. Opponents to the car property tax argue that common cars already pay 100% tariff when imported, meaning that a car in Costa Rica is twice as expensive as in the country of origin. Additionally, gas refills include 65% fuel tax. Owning
