How much will my car tag cost?

To determine how much your tag will cost, you will need to contact your local county Tax Collector. In Mississippi, you pay privilege tax, registration fees, ad valorem taxes, and possibly sales or use tax when you tag your vehicle. Registration fees are $12.75 for renewals and $14.00 for first-time registrations. All the other taxes are based on the vehicle type, the vehicle’s value, and where you live (city, county).
