In its 2020 draft budget law, the Algerian government plans to introduce an environmental tax.
The tax that will be levied on all motor insurance policies amounts to 1 500 DZD (12.5 USD) for passenger vehicles and 3000 DZD (25 USD) for the other vehicles.
Many countries have already introduced such a tax which meets the «polluter pays " principle.
