[quote=Anonymous]We live in DC and we were gifted a used car from our MIL last year in MD. We just needed the MD title hard copy with it signed by MIL transferring to us. To register it in DC, you’ll need a DC drivers license, proof of insurance, clean inspection from DC, hard copy of the AZ title signed over to you, and the application form filled out. From there, I had to go down to Half Street DMV facility to get it inspected. Then once you are done with inspection, you go to the Maine Ave SW DMV office to get it titled, registered, and plated. You will need to pay the transfer tax to DC for the vehicle based on KBB value. For us to do all this, we had to pay about $900 in fees and taxes for a 16 year old Lexus worth about $5K. That included transfer taxes levied by DC between parties, 2 year registration, and 2 year parking permit. It will cost a lot more in transfer taxes for basically a new car. The only way to avoid the transfer taxes is to get the car titled/registered in your name in AZ. DC does not give a break on transfer taxes for a “free” car from a family member. [/quote]
