Understanding Vehicle Title Fees with TX Title Connection
When purchasing a vehicle from an individual, there are specific fees that must be paid when applying for a vehicle title. Here’s what to expect:
Motor Vehicle Sales Tax
Texas requires payment of a 6.25% motor vehicle sales tax, calculated on either the purchase price or the standard presumptive value (SPV) of the vehicle—whichever is higher. This tax is mandatory at the time of title application.
Additional Fees
In addition to the sales tax, you’ll need to cover the standard title, registration, and local fees. The total amount due can vary, so we recommend reaching out to us for an exact breakdown of these fees and guidance on acceptable forms of payment.
Payment Options
TX Title Connection accepts most forms of payment to simplify the process. While the state of Texas does not accept credit cards for tax payments, we offer this option for our customers, with a convenience fee applied for credit card transactions.
