- Utah's base state vehicle sales tax is 4.85%, which is below the national average of 5.02%. Counties and cities can add a local rate on top, so your total tax may be higher depending on where you register the car.
- How much are dealer doc and title fees in Utah?
- The typical documentation fee in Utah runs about $299 — lower than the roughly $398 national average — and the state title fee is around $6. Doc fees are dealer profit and vary from lot to lot, so it is the one line worth pushing back on. Title and registration are government charges you cannot negotiate.
- Is sales tax charged before or after a trade-in in Utah?
- Most states, and this calculator by default, apply sales tax to the price after the trade-in credit, so a trade-in lowers the tax you owe. A few states tax the full price regardless. Enter your trade-in above to see the effect, and confirm Utah's trade-in rule with the DMV if it matters to your deal.
