Slovakia Offers a Subsidy of 8,000 EUR for Electric Vehicles and Slovak Design Studio

Sorry my Slovak isnt good (Im from the UK originally but live in SK). Yesterday I got an email from Tesla to say my Model 3 reservation is now ready to "Design". Is it eligible for the €8000 rebate ? I read that since Tesla dont have a dealership in SK it wouldnt be valid since the purchase would be in Austria ? (but I was reading some old website maybe). If it is eligible must it be below €50k list price ?
Thanks, ToWy

Tesla has already opened the design studio also for Slovakia, look for the Slovak flag, or here: https://www.tesla.com/en_SK/model3/design#battery.
The thing is, if you want to get 8000,- EUR rebate, the price can't be higher than 41666,67 EUR without VAT, so basically just the Standard Range Plus qualifies. But first you have to register for the rebate here https://www.chcemelektromobil.sk/ and after you can order the car.

And, you have to pick up the car in Tilburg/Netherland. And as you write the list price may not exceed 50k€ incl. VAT. It is pitty that we have only chance to choose some colors or towing hitch.

Towy:

1) as Juro said, it applies only to orders up to 41.666,67 € (without VAT) - so be careful what you add on top of default preset in Configurator. Prices in Configurator are withotu VAT but "after savings". Make sure you check the "before savings" price (final price that you actually pay) in bottom left corner.

2) Incentives are only for residents of Slovak republic. If you already have "permanent residency" (not sure what term is being used in EN for this), you are eligible for the incentive.

3) Dealership in SK is no longer an requirement. This was the issue with previous round of incentives (2016-2018), so you read some old article - as you said.

4) Also, the website where you need to register first in order to get the incentive, has currently technical difficulties. It was stopped early yesterday, and be available at 12.00 today.

5) After registration, you will recieve an email from goverment agency SIEA, which will help you to fill all the documents. After that, goverment will judge you request and if there is no problem, you will sign the contract with goverment. After that, you will have 12 months to actually buy the car and ask for a refund. It will be 1-payment payback of 8.000 €.

towy - one hint - be ready to have at hand "motivation statement" (max 500 characters) which is part of the registration request where you explain why you want this support . I am sure it needs to be in slovak.
