Vehicle Use Tax Law

Vehicle Use Tax Law is a tax imposed by state or local governments on the use of vehicles when they are registered, titled, or used within their jurisdiction. Typically applied to purchases made out of state, the tax ensures that residents contribute to local funding for infrastructure and services like roads and public safety. The rate and specific rules can vary by location, but it aims to equalize tax burdens on vehicles, ensuring that all users pay a fair share based on their use of local resources.
