West Virginia Introduces Bill to Exempt Antique Motor Vehicles from Taxes and Fees


A bill (H.B. 2775) has been introduced in the West Virginia State Legislature to provide owners of antique motor vehicles with an exemption from taxation and fees.  The bill is pending in the House Roads and Transportation Committee for consideration.        

We Urge You to Contact the Roads and Transportation Committee Members (List Attached) Immediately To Request Their Support for H.B. 2775.

  • West Virginia law defines an "Antique motor vehicle" to mean any motor vehicle which is more than twenty-five years old and is owned solely as a collector's item.
     
  • H.B. 2775 exempts antique vehicle owners from sales tax and all other taxes and fees.  Under the bill, certificates of title and other required permits would be granted free of charge.
