Bill > H2499

This bill proposes to amend Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 60A, Section 1, which deals with the excise tax on motor vehicles. Specifically, it introduces a new provision that establishes a fixed annual excise tax for older vehicles, regardless of their condition, make, model, or mileage. Under this bill, motor vehicles that are between 10 and 14 calendar years old from their original manufacturing date will have an annual excise tax of $25. Vehicles that are 15 calendar years old and beyond will have an annual excise tax of $20, and this $20 fee will continue to apply thereafter. This change aims to simplify and potentially reduce the excise tax burden for owners of older vehicles.
