Uniform Fee on Personal Property Required to be Registered with the State

For purposes of the disabled veterans exemption and the blind exemption, the taxable value of tangible personal property subject to a uniform fee under Section 59-2-405.1 and/or 59-2-405.2 is to be calculated by dividing the uniform fee the tangible personal property is subject to by .015. (Administrative Rule R884-24P-64)

As an example of how R884-24P-64 is to be applied to various tangible personal property, consider the application of the Rule to passenger cars. The taxable value of passenger cars is derived by dividing the applicable uniform fee by .015 and rounding to the nearest 10 as illustrated below:

Age of Passenger Car

Uniform Fee

Taxable Value

Less than 3 years

$150

$10,000

3 to 5 years

110

7,330

6 to 8 years

80

5,330

9 to 11 years

50

3,330

12 plus years

10

670

Likewise, the taxable value of other tangible personal property required to be registered with the state is to be calculated by dividing the appropriate uniform fee as located in Section 59-2-405.2 of the Utah Code by .015 and rounding to the nearest 10. Such personal property would include all-terrain vehicles, street and other motorcycles, snowmobiles, campers, non-commercial trailers, personal watercraft, small motor vehicles, tent and travel trailers, large and small personal watercraft and vessels (boats). These fees are imposed based on age, except in the case of vessels where the fee is imposed based on the length and the age of the vessel. If you have difficulty in calculating the taxable value for tangible personal property required to be registered with the state, phone the Property Tax Division of the Utah State Tax Commission (801) 297-3603.
