Commission backs changes to temporary dealer motor-vehicle permits, increases allowable extensions
Summary
The Tax Commission voted to publish amendments to R877-23V-5 that clarify dealer recordkeeping, raise allowable dealer extensions from 2% to 6%, and extend filing time for out-of-state registrations from 10 to 45 days.
The Utah State Tax Commission voted unanimously June 5 to submit proposed amendments to R877-23V-5 governing temporary motor vehicle registration permits issued by dealers. Commissioner Rebecca L. Rockwell described three specific changes in the draft rule: simplifying the information dealers must record for extension permits, increasing the percentage of allowable extensions from 2% to 6% based on recent MVED data, and lengthening the filing period for permit stubs from 10 days to 45 days for vehicles registered out of state.
"Draft changes to the rule increase from 2% to 6% the amount of extensions a dealer may allow out of the total number of temporary permits issued to the dealer in the last three months," Commissioner Rebecca L. Rockwell said. She moved to submit the proposed amendments for publication in the Utah State Bulletin; the Commission approved the motion on a unanimous roll call vote.
The proposal also clarifies that only the approval number issued by the Motor Vehicle Enforcement Division needs to be recorded in the permit record and stub, and notes the COVID-19-era temporary allowance that prompted the analysis supporting an increase in extensions.
