Arizona Vehicle License Tax
The state also charges a vehicle license tax (VLT) at every registration and renewal. This tax is assessed for each $100 of your vehicle's value. Note that the value of your vehicle is calculated as 60% of the original manufacturer's retail price, and that total will be lowered by 16.25% at every registration renewal. From here: DMV |

A 1 year old 32k car is about $475 for a year. If you have a new fancy vehicle, get out your checkbook. If you have an old vehicle, it can be like 30 dollars.

" that total will be lowered by 16.25% at every registration renewal." that is some poor wording on the DMV site... I assume that means every calendar year whether you own it or not and regardless if you renew 1, 2 or 5 year blocks.
This tax is half the reason I drive old cars... ages ago I had a buddy complain about paying $60 a year to register a car in Texas, I looked at him like his head exploded. And this was 15 years ago when a decent new car in AZ still run about $300-400 in the first year tags... |

What the hell are "tabs"?
Anyway, as everyone above says, the license tax is dependent on the value and how old the vehicle is. For older vehicles you can register for 2 years instead of one and save some of the fees. My 08 Mustang was $209 for two years last year. Also if you are in Phoenix or Tucson Metro areas you need to get a Smog Check every two years, with of course the ever present government fee. Word of advice, there is technically ZERO grace period to get your AZ plates and registration. Get caught driving on out of state plates as an AZ resident and it's a significant fine. $500 or so. |

FYI, there are several local companies that provide MVD services. Their fees are insignificant compared to dealing with lazy state workers and the long lines and welfare rats and criminals at the MVD office.
I haven't stepped foot in a MVD office in years. |
