Taxes are calculated by the vehicle values set by the Georgia Department of Motor Vehicle Division, and multiplied by the mil rate set by the governing authorities (state, school, county, municipalities). To view the Tax Assessment Manual visit Georgia's Department of Revenue website.

Taxes are due NO later than midnight of your birthday. If you are renewing by mail, the payment must be post marked by midnight of your birthday to avoid late fees. The law states that the decal must be displayed on your license plate by midnight your birthday.

If you renew after your birthday, the late fees are 25% of the tag fee and 10% of the ad valorem tax fee or $5.00, whichever is greater.
