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:
49% (for 2020) x $694.80 = $340.45
- Reduce the tax by the relief amount:
$694.80 - $340.45 = $354.35
- Annual Tax Amount = $354.35
This does not include the registration fee currently set at $40.00 per vehicle.
