r/Virginia on Reddit: What other states have personal property taxes on vehicles?
April 25, 2024 -
We moved to Virginia in 2022 and the amount I'm paying in personal property taxes each year for vehicles is ridiculous. Even Taxifornia doesn't have this tax.
Why does Virginia have this tax when they already have a state income tax?

In the 90’s the governor tried to eliminate it. It was basically his whole platform. Unfortunately it is a major source of funding for localities, so the idea was that the state would pay the tax to the localities on behalf of residents. This was to be phased in gradually, where the state would pay more and residents less each year until residents paid nothing. They got about half way through the phase-in and realized it was financially infeasible. So we are left with this odd system today where the localities bill an amount and you only pay around half of it.

r/texas on Reddit: Property taxes on Leased Vehicles?
December 22, 2024 -
Hi all, I tried googling but am getting inconclusive answers.. I recently moved to TX from a state that did NOT charge property taxes on vehicles.. Can anyone confirm if I will be needing to pay property taxes for Texas for my new- leased vehicle? Really hoping not😭 Sidenote- this is my first vehicle ever purchasing, so I am new to all of this stuff anyways.
Any help is appreciated & if it helps to know- I purchased an EV and got the $7500 tax credit.
EDIT- I had until April 2025 to submit a leasee's Property Tax Exemption Affidavit thingy... Thank GODDD. I called my bank (well, the company that I'm leasing through)- and they sent the form over IMMEDIATELY. Thank God.. I had been saving up ~$3k in anticipation.

There is no statewide property tax on vehicles in Texas, local governments (cities and counties) may charge property taxes on vehicles as part of their business, personal property tax, or other local taxes. The specific rates and rules vary by jurisdiction.

CPA here. I've never leased a vehicle but I have insight here. You likely will be paying property tax on the car because in texas we have property tax for assets for businesses. You are leasing the vehicle from a business who is paying property tax on the vehicle which they will pass through to you. We do this is copier leases etc, so I would assume you would too, but I would refer to the contract you have with the company to confirm, it would 100% give you the right answer. It would likely be in large letters about your responsibilities and taxes etc. I'd put money on you owing about 3% of the value of the car which will vary slightly on the county you are in.

Motor Vehicle Taxes Frequently Asked Questions
A vehicle also qualifies to be taxed as a gift when it is donated to, or given by, a nonprofit service organization qualifying under the Internal Revenue Code, Section 501(c)(3). All other motor vehicle transfers made without payment are defined as sales and are subject to tax calculated on the standard presumptive value of the vehicle. Both the vehicle donor and recipient must complete Form 14-317, Affidavit of Motor Vehicle Gift Transfer (PDF), which describes the transaction and the relationship between the parties. The affidavit must be notarized by a public notary of Texas or another state, or witnessed by an authorized employee of a Texas county tax assessor-collector's office.
