Tutti Frutti Application – Fill Out and Use This PDF

For Illinois private party vehicle use tax, the tax is based on the purchase price (or fair market value) with exceptions noted on the right (motorcycles and specific situations). For most purchases, you will use Table A or B to determine the tax amount. The purchase price of a vehicle is the value given whether received in money or otherwise; this includes cash, credits, property, or service. When there is no stated purchase price, such as in the case of a gift or even trade, the fair market value should be used. The fair market value may be obtained from a licensed dealer.

Other transaction types that may be reported on Form RUT-50 are listed below along with the required tax amount due.
