You pay tax where you register the car; you register the car where it will be garaged for more than 6 months out of the year. So in your case, yes, you pay the 5% sales tax to Massachusetts assuming that is where it will be garaged.

Even if you're moving into MA from another state within 6 months of buying a new car, you may have to pay the difference in sales tax from that which you paid to the other state to MA. There are very few ways to get around the high cost of living here, just be glad you don't live in CA :)

Don't forget excise (town level) tax can be hefty too. If you must buy new, help lower the cost, consider buying the previous year's model vehicle.

Good luck & thank you for helping to fix our roads. Remember, in MA we have 3 seasons: Winter, Spring and Roadwork.

You CAN avoid paying the sales tax in Massachusetts ONLY if the dealership delivers your vehicle to you from New Hampshire. You will need a written document from the dealership stating this and give it to the Registry of Motor Vehicles.
