Sales tax question

Not all states are reciprocal so make sure before you pay so you dont have to pay in both.

Yes However I know several rv'rs that all of them took the MH to their state for the summer. Texas plate went to Oregon. Montana plate went to Indianan, Texas plate went to MInn and more.

I bet he took his Montana registered motorhome into Michigan, right?
THAT was a mistake!

I do think that is true. Now not too long ago Arizona was going to go into rv resorts to see the vehicle's sitting that have out of state plates and were going to issue a ticket because of never leaving the state. this was in the local newspaper but never heard or any body complain of it happening . This was a summer inspection, as I forgot to add.

If he resides in Michigan more than 6 mo I am sure they can.

There is some reason I don't remember making it better in SD for us. LLC or ???

We are full timers with SD as our domicile state. That said, if you're a SD resident the DMV has nothing to do with your situation. All vehicle transactions are handled through the Tax assessor's office.

We purchased our toad in Alabama last year from a dealer. Paid cash for the car, paid zero dollars to Alabama. Dealer gave us a temp plate and we took care of getting it registered in SD. Kept the same plates off our old car and put them on the new one. Everything was done on line except for the amount due. That was done with a phone call to the tax office. They will need either a bill of sale or the dealer's contract agreement. Copies are ok. All this is on line on SD website or you can contact your county's tax assessor.

If you're not a full timer and/or a SD resident, then none of the above applies...Dennis

If you have Americas Mailbox as your mail forwarder, call them with the purchase info and they will do it for you...D

HERE is the form you need to fill out. Print it and take it with you to the dealer where you're purchasing the vehicle.

In some states(Arizona being one), there is no sales tax on private party sales. Also if you trade in at a dealer you only pay sales tax on the difference.
