IPVA PB value

The tax calculation basis is the market value of the vehicle (market value), which takes into account the numbers in the Fipe table – Foundation Institute for Economic Research. This number must be multiplied by the rate established by the state of Paraíba.

But, taxpayers do not have to worry about doing this math, because on the Sefaz-PB website, the table with the IPVA values by model is already available, as well as the list of market values for the year 2026.

Payment schedule

Owners will once again have a schedule scheduled to pay the IPVA PB 2026. The deadline for advance payment with a 10% discount will be the last business day of each month, in the period from January to October, with the exception of May, in which the date of payment will be on the 29th. The final number of the vehicle’s license plate defines the month of advance payment.

For example, for the owner with final license plate 1, the due date is March 31, but the taxpayer can anticipate it to January 30, the last day and, thus, pay the tax in a single quota in cash with a 10% discount.
