vehicle.newMeansOfTransportIndicator

New means of transport · Neues Fahrzeug (USt) statutory

Issuer's statement that at the time of supply the vehicle is a 'new means of transport' for VAT: a motorised land vehicle intended for the transport of persons or goods, of more than 48 cm3 or more than 7.2 kW (Art. 2(2)(a)(i)), supplied within six months of the date of first entry into service or having travelled no more than 6 000 km (Art. 2(2)(b)(i)), with the facts established under the rules of the Member State (Art. 2(2)(c)). A statement of fact, not a VAT determination; the VAT treatment stays in the VAT terms. 'Neues Fahrzeug' is the VAT term, not the commercial condition (vehicle.conditionCode). Land vehicles only in 1.0.
