Vehicle Fee Exemptions

An exemption releases qualified owner(s) of a vehicle from paying Vehicle License Tax (VLT), Registration fees, and commercial vehicle fees.

All reduced VLT rates must be applied at the time of initial registration or registration renewal.

Refunds will not be given unless it has been determined the VLT has been overpaid due to error.

There are different kinds of exemptions for which a customer can qualify. Each exemption requires the applicant to have specific documentation as proof of eligibility.

There are four categories of exemptions:

  1. Military/Public Health
  2. Non-Profit/Religious/School
  3. Owner Qualifier
  4. Vehicle Qualifier

All required supporting documents that are presented for a reduced or exempted VLT rate must be submitted.
