Passenger Vehicle Registration Fees, Use Taxes and Supplemental Fees

Use both the registration fee and county use tax charts to determine your registration fee and county use tax.

If this is the original registration of your vehicle, in addition to the registration fee and county use tax, you must pay

• the fees for your vehicle plates ($25.00)
• your title certificate fee of $50.00
• the sales tax - the amount of the sales tax depends on the purchase price and your locality. You can see the current sales tax rates by jurisdiction at the Department of Taxation and Finance website.

There is a minimum 2-year fee of $32.50 for a vehicle that has 6 or more cylinders, or for an electric vehicle. Dealers, this minimum fee is not a surcharge or an additional fee. Do not add $32.50 to the fee that the chart indicates or to the amount that the Estimate Registration Fees service calculates.

The Registration Fee Chart shows the 2 year fee for Passenger Vehicles by vehicle weight. For more information, please read the Passenger Vehicle Registration Fee Schedule and Use Tax Chart (PDF) (MV-202).

Residents of New York City and several counties in New York State must pay a vehicle use tax when they register a passenger vehicle or renew a passenger vehicle registration. The DMV collects the taxes for the city and the counties. Read the table below to determine if you must pay a vehicle use tax. If you have questions about these taxes, ask the city or county where you reside or have a business.

• If you reside outside New York City and are exempt from the vehicle use tax in the county where you live or have a business, complete the County Use Tax Exemption Certificate (PDF) (UT-11C).
• If you reside in New York City and are exempt from the New York City vehicle use tax, get form UT-11 from a DMV Call Center.
