How this is calculated

The calculator above is pre-labeled with the 4 named fees Georgia typically charges: Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT, one-time at titling — replaces sales tax); Annual registration fee; Annual tag renewal fee; Title fee. Georgia replaced sales tax and annual ad valorem with the Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) — a one-time percentage of fair market value paid at titling (default $0 since it does not recur). Annual renewal is a flat registration plus tag fee.

Default assumption: the pre-filled amounts represent a typical ~$30,000 midsize sedan, three years old, registered annually. Heavier vehicles, newer vehicles, higher-value vehicles, and electric / plug-in hybrids will see different amounts in most categories — override the rows for your specific case.

Source for current amounts: Georgia Motor Vehicle Division (Department of Revenue). Verify on the official agency page before paying — dollar amounts vary by county, weight class, vehicle age, and powertrain.
