Best Answer

To avoid paying California "use tax", you need to have the vehicle shipped out-of-state by a common carrier. If you take delivery of the vehicle in California, you are supposed to pay the tax. Most other states do not require the payment of tax if you take delivery within the state, obtain a removal permit and remove the vehicle from the state within a specified period of time (a few days perhaps). I cannot comment on the question of registration and payment of tax in your own state.

There is a loophole that lets California drivers use vehicles registered in another state, such as Oregon, if they have owned and used it there for 90 days. If you have to register it in California, the yearly fees are just as comparatively high as the sales tax rates.

What year did you have to go through a dealer to purchase a long gun in California?

California does not require that you "go thru a dealer". However, IF you are buying a gun from outside the State of California, it must come to a dealer in California. That has been Federal law since 1968.


What state sells the most guns in US?

No way to answer, since most states do not have registration for ordinary firearms. California would be a candidate for this, simply due to the large population.


How do you get a gun registered in your name?

There is no one process, since the law varies from state to state. There is no FEDERAL law that requires registration of ordinary rifles, shotguns or handguns in the US. MOST states also do not require registration. When a firearm is purchased from a dealer, the dealer makes a record of the sale, which is retained at the dealership for 20 years- but it is not registered with any one. Check with a local gun shop to see if the law where YOU live requires registration.

How do you register a handgun in ny that was received as a gift from someone in vermont?

You need to contact the NYSP In order to transfer a handgun from one person to another person who is in a different state, you have to transfer it through a dealer. The person in NY should have shipped the gun to a dealer in VT and the person receiving the gift should have gone to the dealer to pick it up. Even though VT does not require registration, I'm pretty sure NY does, so you should contact a NY gun dealer to see what is required. In general, a person can ship a handgun to a dealer through UPS or FEDEX or any secondary carrier, but not through the U.S. Postal Service, as long as it goes to a licensed dealer, but since NY has registration, there may be additional requirements or restrictions.


What is California state law for receiving handgun as a gift from sibling from another state?

The question is not California law, but Federal law. Since 1968, the transfer of ownership of a firearm across a state line, whether a gift or purchase, must be made through a licensed Federal Firearms Dealer in the home state of the recipient. The dealer will process the paperwork, including a background check prior to transferring the firearm to the recipient. The only exception is inheritance of a firearm. Check with a local dealer who can guide you.

Can felons obtain a dealers license ca?

In California, felons can obtain a dealer's license under certain circumstances. The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) may deny or revoke a dealer's license if the applicant has been convicted of a felony involving fraud, violence, or vehicle-related crimes. However, each case is evaluated on its own merits, and the DMV takes into consideration factors like the time that has passed since the conviction and the applicant's rehabilitation efforts.
