Do I need to pay sales tax on a car shipped outside America?
If you are registered with an overseas address and are purchasing a vehicle from the USA for export, you will not be required to pay sales tax as long as the vehicle is shipped internationally.
Why This Matters for International Buyers
- Tax Exemption: This exemption streamlines the process, making it easier for international buyers to purchase and export vehicles.
- Smoother Transaction: Avoiding domestic sales tax ensures a more cost-effective and seamless transaction when exporting a vehicle from the United States.
