Bill Summary

Relative to excise taxes assessed on leased motor vehicles. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 60A of the General Laws to require lessors of motor vehicles to have a written policy for the payment of motor vehicle excise taxes and to disclose this policy to the lessee. The policy must include information on who is responsible for paying the excise tax, who is responsible for applying for an abatement if the vehicle is returned before the end of the calendar year, and the process for obtaining a refund. Failure to comply with these requirements would be considered an unfair or deceptive act under Chapter 93A, which governs consumer protection laws in Massachusetts.
