Arizona uses a value-based approach to calculate Vehicle License Tax (VLT), meaning your registration fee depends on your vehicle’s assessed value rather than a flat annual charge. The assessed value begins at 60% of the original MSRP and decreases each year according to the state’s official depreciation schedule. This structure ensures that registration costs gradually decline as your vehicle gets older.

The Arizona VLT Calculator provides a simple and efficient way to estimate your annual tax. By entering your vehicle’s original retail price and model year, you can instantly receive an accurate estimate. The tool automatically applies depreciation and the appropriate tax rate, giving you clear results without complicated manual calculations.

Whether you are preparing for renewal, purchasing a vehicle, or comparing long-term ownership expenses, the Arizona VLT Calculator helps you make informed financial decisions. With quick and transparent estimates, Arizona drivers can confidently plan their yearly registration budget.
