RELATING TO THE MOTOR VEHICLE RENTAL INDUSTRY.

SB 2216 removes a vehicle license recovery fee currently charged to rental companies and allows them to pass certain fees and taxes directly to renters (lessees) instead. This bill directly affects car rental businesses and their customers, changing how operational costs are structured. The key mechanism replaces one fee with passable costs, though it does not create new taxes or fees. The changes will take effect on January 1, 2051, and are not retroactive to current rental agreements.
