Tax bills are generally mailed during the first week of September each year and are sent directly to taxpayers. Mortgage companies are provided tax information upon request.

The Wyoming Department of Revenue requests that the Affidavit of Delivery be placed on company letterhead and signed by the purchaser. This requirement also applies to person-to-person sales.

How Motor Vehicle County Fees Are Calculated
County registration fees are based on the vehicle’s original manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including the year, make, model, and trim package.
The calculated valuation is multiplied by 3% to determine the county fee. This is an ad valorem tax charged in place of property tax.
State Registration Fees
Passenger vehicles have a flat state fee of $30. State fees for trucks, trailers, motor homes, and campers are based on weight.
