Does California have a sales tax from an out of state purchase RV motor home?

California does not impose a sales tax on the purchase of an RV motor home from an out-of-state seller. However, the buyer may be responsible for paying a use tax to California if the RV motor home is used in the state. The use tax rate in California is the same as the sales tax rate, which is currently 7.25%.

To register an out-of-state RV motor home in California, the buyer will need to provide the following documents:

* A completed Application for Title or Registration (Form REG 343)

* A valid out-of-state title or registration for the RV motor home

* A smog inspection certificate (if applicable)

* Proof of insurance

* Payment of the applicable registration fees and use tax

If the buyer does not have a valid out-of-state title or registration for the RV motor home, they may need to apply for a duplicate title or registration from the state in which the RV motor home was purchased.
