Motor Vehicle Fees and Payment Options

To comply with the law in Kansas, newly acquired vehicle owners need to minimally pay three items. Other fees might apply based on unique situations.

Sales Tax

This tax is paid one time and is just like any other tax you pay at the time of a purchase. You might pay this at the time you purchase the vehicle from a dealership, but if not this will be collected at the time of registration. 

To calculate sales tax, visit Kansas Department of Revenue Sales Tax Calculator.

Personal Property Tax

Personal Property Tax is due annually and is pro-rated based on the month that you are paying the tax. 

Use the Vehicle Property Tax Calculator to get an estimate of the cost by make/model/year, VIN or RV weight/year, for a partial or full registration year.
