Tax Deduction for Municipal Fees on Vehicle Registrations.

Hoping this message will be helpful to those who need vehicle registration payment info for your taxes, and you can’t reach us….

1. Your validated registration is your receipt of payment and of course it should be right where you can find it in your vehicle…..(!)

2. On the right-hand side of that document there are two sections: the top is the costs for the state and usually not deductible. Check with your tax preparer; your circumstances may allow it.

3. The bottom section shows the municipal fees. That’s the part that IS deductible.

4. Recently we are hearing that tax preparers want a copy of the registration document to support the deduction.

We hope this helps -- Patty.
