The state rules behind the ledger

- Destination tax and fees
- Vehicle ownership for six months and proof of tax previously paid can change sales-tax treatment.
- Inspection or VIN
- Provide VIN tracing or approved verification, then complete the Pennsylvania safety inspection within 10 days after registration.
- Old-state recovery
- No source-complete New Hampshire move-out refund rule is currently available in the calculator. Do not count an unverified refund as savings.
