Do you have to pay tax on a car buy out of state twice?

Whether you have to pay tax on a car bought out of state twice depends on the specific rules and regulations in your state. In general, you will typically need to pay sales tax on the purchase of a car, regardless of whether you buy it in your home state or another state. However, some states may offer a tax credit or exemption for cars purchased out of state, which could reduce the amount of tax you owe.

To determine whether you need to pay tax on a car bought out of state twice, you should contact the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or tax authority in your state and provide them with details about your purchase, such as the state where the car was purchased, the purchase price, and any relevant tax documentation. They will be able to advise you on the specific tax obligations you may have.
