re: Sales tax now levied on private boat sales

not only do you pay state tax but parish taxes too.
it was previously only taxable if you bought from a dealer. not its private sales too. I ended up paying 1800 dollars in taxes for the boat i bought.
I also just sold a boat a few weeks ago and he had a pocket notary. He put a pretty small amount on it..

Do you not pay sales tax when you buy a car private party?

I might've been wrong on what the lady asked about my truck, probably was on my boat trailer. But definitely could've adjusted the sale price on my truck bill of sale.

It's only a matter of time before you have to register a kayak or canoe.

I bought a sail boat. No trailer. No state tax.
4.5% would have been a chunk of money.
frick this state and the POS govna.

Register the boat in Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, or Texas and get a P.O. Box in that state that's what everyone is now doing. Louisiana is going to lose more revenue to other states for this money grab and it will seriously dampen the number of the revenue.
I just bought my boat and it has Miss registration but I keep it in Louisiana.

They all get sold for $1 on the paperwork and cash under the table.

It is called personal property tax. We have it here in Virginia and anything registered through the state or county you have to pay taxes on yearly and that includes your vehicle! Boats, jetskis, motorcycles etc! Get ready because it is coming.

I'm giving away a boat if you buy the motor and trailer.

No, it's a sales tax. Only at the purchase. There's a separate use tax for bringing the property into the state and using it, which is very similar to the sales tax. Either way, it's a one time thing, not an annual personal property tax that many other states have.
You should keep your boat in VA beach

Too bad there isn't another country we can sail to, colonize and throw their damn tea in the water.

Maybe you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Take a look at how much Louisiana spends compared to similar states.
The problem is spending. Period.

I thought this was always the case? It's why I only buy and sell the trailer.

Ok. Enlighten me. Educate us on how JBE is responsible for sales tax on private boat transfers.
