For legislation relative to excise taxes on certain motor vehicles registered in the Commonwealth. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill amends the General Laws of Massachusetts to address the motor vehicle sales tax. Specifically, it states that if a person purchased a vehicle out-of-state and registered it in that state for more than 6 months, or purchased a vehicle in Massachusetts more than 6 months prior to becoming a Massachusetts resident, the excise tax will be based on the Kelley Blue Book value at the time of registration in Massachusetts, rather than the original purchase date. Additionally, the bill requires class 1, 3, and 3 license holders (motor vehicle dealers) to notify out-of-state purchasers that they must take delivery of the vehicle out-of-state or pay Massachusetts sales tax at the time of sale.
