It is possible, and perfectly legal, to eliminate all sales taxes and minimize license fees upon the purchase and registration of a recreational vehicle, or other vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and trailers.
Montana has no sales tax and no inspection requirements.
Under Montana law, if you establish a Montana business entity, and it takes title to your RV, regardless of where the RV is purchased, the business entity can make the purchase of the RV free of sales tax, and register it in Montana for a low registration fee based solely on the age of the RV. This is because a Montana business entity is by law a resident of Montana, and Montana has no sales tax or property tax on RVs.
You need only do the following:
1. Contact Bennett Law Office, P.C. to establish a Montana business entity for you you need only choose the name you would like (e.g. "Big Joe?s RV LLC");
2. Purchase (or transfer the ownership of) the RV in the name of the business entity - such that the name of the business entity and Montana address of the business entity (my law office address in Montana and not your own name and home address) appears on the title work for the RV.
Bennett Law Office, P.C. can establish a business entity for you in as little as 24 hours. We will also discuss with you the laws of the state of your residence to ensure that you can also comply with those laws.
