Bill > S2312

This bill aims to simplify the motor vehicle excise tax process and prevent multiple excise charges. The key provisions are: 1. The Registry of Motor Vehicles shall, upon the surrender of a vehicle or trailer registration, provide the individual with an affirmation of the registration's return and a Motor Vehicle Excise Abatement Application with instructions on how to apply for an abatement. 2. The Registry shall notify the board of assessors and the tax collector or commissioner that the registration has been surrendered. 3. The tax collector shall notify the individual in writing within 14 days of receiving the notice from the Registry about the exact procedure to cease further excise tax charges and/or receive an abatement for any excise paid after the registration's surrender. The goal is to streamline the process and prevent individuals from being charged for excise taxes after they have returned their vehicle registration.
