Vehicle Sales Tax Info

When licensing a vehicle, buyers are charged Missouri state sales tax which is 4.225% plus local sales tax depending upon which city they reside:

   Local Sales Tax for CLP is 3.200%

  Local Sales Tax for Des Peres is 4.200%

  Local Sales Tax for Frontenac is 4.200%

  Local Sales Tax for Town and Country is 3.950%

Site code of 0412 must appear on CLP resident's personal property tax receipt verifying CLP residence.  It is important to verify that sales tax for CLP is being charged when licensing a vehicle.

CLP will receive a portion of the local sales tax as long as the resident can show that the personal property tax receipt has a CLP code.  If a resident discovers they were assessed local sales tax for a city other than CLP, the DMV will refund their money.
