Budget & Taxes

HB 1436 proposes to amend North Dakota's motor vehicle excise tax code by establishing age-based tax rates: 5% for vehicles under 11 years old, 3% for vehicles 11-25 years old, and 1% for vehicles over 25 years old. The tax applies to the purchase price of any motor vehicle acquired for use in North Dakota, whether bought inside or outside the state. The bill would have taken effect for taxable events occurring after June 30, 2025, but failed to pass the legislature in January 2025. This change would directly affect individuals purchasing new or used vehicles in North Dakota, altering the tax burden based on vehicle age.
