Transferring registration

Go to motor vehicle.there a million ways it could go depending what state you are in.you will the have the right answer in 4 min.

We do it opposite of how it is done in Europe. Over there a car registration stays with the car for life. Over here, a car has to beregistered to it's owner, and every transfer of ownership means re-registering and re-titling the car. When you sell or buy a car in the US, the new owner will have to pay for a new title, pay sales tax on the purchase amount, and register the car with new plates.

Yeah, you can't transfer plates from one owner to another. $70 for plates, $15 for title, and 8.25% sales tax on car's purchase amount.

You must be either from New England, Oregon, Montana or Alaska. Some states get it. Like most mine does not. Charging sales tax on a used car is infuriating. And we still have sh**** roads. If you want to see some drama, come down to our Title Bureau, and watch people melt down when they transfer a title and have to cough up several hundred or thousands of dollars just to title their car.

In some states property taxes also apply. Those are refundable on a prorated basis upon surrender of the license plate or trading the vehicle and transferring the plate(s). Not sure how it works in Georgia. You will still be responsible title and registration fees on the new purchase.
