[来源: CIR] [分类提示: NEWS] 标题: EuroCham Cambodia Automotive Committee Flags Tax Disparity as Local Vehicle Assembly Investment Faces Pressure from Cheaper Imported EVs Cambodia Investment Review Cambodia’s automotive industry is expanding rapidly, but industry leaders are warning that the country’s current tax structure risks undermining more than US$217 million in local manufacturing investment by making imported electric vehicles significantly cheaper than assembling them domestically. Speaking at EuroCham Cambodia’s Automotive Sector Outlook for 2026 and Beyond breakfast in Phnom Penh on June 30, the European business community called for reforms to vehicle taxation, stronger market regulation and greater policy certainty as Cambodia’s vehicle market enters a new phase of growth. The event, held at Novotel Phnom Penh BKK1, brought together government officials, automotive manufacturers, investors and industry representatives to examine the sector’s outlook. Opening remarks were delivered by Martin Brisson, Executive Director of EuroCham Cambodia, and Bryan Fonari, Head of Cooperation at the Delegation of the European Union to the Kingdom of Cambodia. Cambodia’s Automotive Market Continues to Expand Makara Chhoeurn, Chairperson of EuroCham Cambodia’s Automotive Committee and Project Manager at RMA Cambodia, said Cambodia sold approximately 82,000 vehicles across around 100 represented brands in 2025, while passenger vehicle sales increased 35% year-on-year during the first five months of 2026.
