Some countries like Iran ask for a Carnet de Passage en Douanes (CPD) to pass through their territories riding a vehicle. It's clear that a car or motorbike needs this CPD and that a bike not, but does a moped need a CPD?

Does a moped need a Carnet de Passage for Iran?

No, because a CPD is a bond that guarantees that duty will be paid if the object/s is/are not re-exported according to regulations. There is always the alternative of paying the duty instead. In the case of Iran and second-hand scooters the duty is 55% and there is a sales tax of 9%, so in all 68.95% of the declared value of the scooter.

There is a list of countries with CPD issuing facilities at AIT where the link shown for Spain includes:

Additionally, the issue of carnet de passages has an approximate cost of 230 euros. May vary depending on the format, 10 or 25 sheets, the printing languages ​​is French and English.

The validity of this card in any of the two formats is one year.

Banks usually charge a figure close to 100 euros for the issuance of the guarantee, regardless of the amount itself of it.
