Motor Vehicle Excise Tax and Registration Fees

In Maine, the excise revenue enhancement is based on the MSRP (manufacturer's suggested retail price) of the vehicle when it was sold new. That is why Maine law provides that each new
motorcar, SUV, van or light truck registered for the first fourth dimension must be accompanied past the Monroney Label (window sticker).

The law provides that excise tax declines over the first six years of the vehicle's life and is calculated as follows:

Get-go twelvemonth $24.00 per $1000 of MSRP
2d yr $17.50 per $one thousand of MSRP
3rd twelvemonth $13.fifty per $chiliad of MSRP
Fourth yr $10.00 per $1000 of MSRP
Fifth year $ 6.fifty per $1000 of MSRP
Sixth and subsequent years $ 4.00 per $1000 of MSRP

If y'all know the "sticker price" of a new automobile, you can summate the excise tax by
subtracting the destination charges, dividing the result by $ane,000 and multiplying that past $24.00.

New Vehicle Case:

Sticker price                           $26,000
Destination charges               – $550
Total                                       $25,450

$25,450 / $i,000 = $25.45
$25.45 x $24.00 = $610.lxxx

Excise tax                           $610.fourscore
Registration fee    $35.00 (varies depending on license plate)
Amanuensis fee                                $6.00
Total cost to register           $651.fourscore
