Sales tax on a commercial vehicle?

Check the rolling stock exemption in your state

 

Midnight, your getting confused.

Here is something you need to do, call this number and talk to someone who knows what the hell is going on in that weird state of yours - 360-533-3356 Ask for sales, these guy will tell you what's what.

AND don't put the title in another state, only in the state that you reside in or the company is headquartered in.

The plates can come from anywhere, they are separate from your title and lean party on the title. The plates fall under an agreement with all the states for interstate commerce, they are forced to do this by the feds.

 

In nj there was no sales tax on my big truck

 

Same in NY. I know, hard to believe

 

In washington you have to certify that at least 25 percent of your miles will be out of state. That certifies your sales tax exemption. See the manager at your vehicle license office or else go to a different office. I had to go to 5 different places the first time.

 

In MO, after filling out an exemption form using my carrier ((LS)) ‘s DOT number, there was no sales tax to be paid.

2 trucks and 2 trailers later . . .

 

If the company he’s leasing to is out of Missouri, I’d be inclined to follow my lead, using their address if needed - like you say, plates are a different deal altogether.
