If I move out of state, do I still owe excise?

The bill should in most cases be paid as issued. Once you have re-registered your vehicle in the new state and cancelled your MA. registration you should apply for an abatement with our office; a refund will then follow. The documentation to be provided to our office should be:

  • A photocopy of the registartion in the new state.
  • A copy of your MA. plate return receipt.

The documentation should be mailed to the Board of Assessors at the Town of Monterey P.O. Box 308 Monterey, MA 01245
