Notify the Commissioner of the Revenue within 45 days of purchase or move to the City. Do not rely on the dealer
or DMV to notify us! The City of Winchester imposes a ten percent (10%) late filing penalty on the tax plus a $5.00 late
filing penalty of the license fee for any non-filing or late filing by the taxpayer.
A “business use” vehicle is one which is used over 50% of the time for business purposes or for which the owner claimed a business vehicle tax
deduction (depreciation and/or other expenses) on the federal income tax return by the filing of a Schedule C, a Form 2016 or a Form 2562. A business
vehicle does not qualify for Personal Property Tax Relief (PPTR).
