Motor Vehicle Excise Tax is based on the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) when the vehicle is new, as taken from the window sticker. To calculate the excise on your vehicle, the following scale is used:
Year 1 (2023) |
0.024 |
Year 2 (2022) |
0.0175 |
Year 3 (2021) |
0.0135 |
Year 4 (2020) |
0.010 |
Year 5 (2019) |
0.0065 |
Year 6 & after (2018) |
0.004 |
Year one is the current model year (2023), year 2 is 2022, etc. Multiply the MSRP of your vehicle with the number above that matches the age of your vehicle to get your excise tax amount. You can also call the office for an estimate. Excise tax stays in the Town and is used for road work and maintenance.
