Calculating Personal Property Tax
Example of a personal use vehicle with an assessed value of $20,000 or less.
Assessed value of $19,300
- $19,300 x .036 = $694.80
(for 12 months)
- Calculate personal property relief:
55% (for 2022) x $694.80 = $382.14
- Reduce the tax by the relief amount:
$694.80 - $382.14 = $312.66
- Annual Tax Amount = $312.66
This does not include the registration fee currently set at $20.00 per vehicle.
