Abstract: The Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008 added § 30D of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) to authorize a credit for new qualified plug-in electric drive motor vehicles. Section 30D has been amended several times since its enactment, most recently by § 13401 of Public Law 117-169, 136 Stat. 1818 (August 16, 2022), commonly known as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) and provides a credit for clean new vehicles. Section 13402 of the IRA added § 25E to the Code and provides a credit for previously owned clean vehicles. Section 13403(a) of the IRA added new § 45W to the Code and provides a credit for qualified commercial clean vehicles.

Short Statement: IRS is issuing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), REG-123525-23 that will amend 1545-2137 to add reporting, third-party disclosures, and recordkeeping requirements. The NPRM contemplates establishing a reporting and third-party disclosure requirement for manufacturers to issue and associate a Product Identification Number (PIN) for specified property under Section 45W. The manufacturers would then report the issued PIN to the IRS. This requirement is estimated to add 4,500 respondents/responses and 1,125 burden hours to the collection. It is estimated to take 15 minutes (.25 hours) for each respondent to comply with this requirement. Additionally, manufacturers will also be required to provide taxpayers with the powertrain cost or incremental cost value of a vehicle; and taxpayers will be required to maintain a record of these disclosures. (§1.45W-2(c)(10)). It is estimated to take one hour to complete this requirement, with an estimate of 500 respondents/responses for an increase in 500 burden hours. These changes increase the estimated number of respondents/responses by 5,000, with an estimated overall increase of burden hours of 1,625, for a total of 253,441 respondents/responses and 609,498 overall total burden hours.
