Location: Kodiak, AK | It depends on who you're buying it from. If you buy it from a dealer, you'll pay tax to the out of state dealer. If you'r buying person to person, you likely won't pay them tax, unless they have a tax number or business license or whatever that would allow them to collect tax. Then when you bring it back to IL, you'll pay tax there if you didn't where you bought it. If you buy it at an out of state dealer, make sure they give you a reciept with tax itemized, so you can prove that you've already paid tax on it. I just went though this here in MI with a boat I bought in WI, so these are MI laws as I know them. Each state is different, and some states will charge you tax even if you paid tax in the state you bought it in!! |
