How Texas VIT works
- A property tax, prepaid monthly
- The property tax on a Texas dealer's motor vehicle inventory, prepaid on each vehicle sold. Separate from motor vehicle sales tax.
- The VIT rate
- The combined 2025 rates of every taxing unit at the lot on January 1, 2026, per $100 of value.
- The unit property tax factor (UPTF)
- The VIT rate ÷ 100 ÷ 12. Sales price × factor is the sale's tax.
- The forms
- Form 50-246, monthly, to the county tax assessor-collector; Form 50-244, yearly, to the appraisal district.
