Introduction

Car dealer fees in the United States vary greatly from state to state. For example, many states require a titling fee when a vehicle is purchased from a car dealership. Titling fees cover the cost of processing documentation required by the state and transferring ownership of a car to the buyer. Other common car dealership fees include sales tax (which varies depending on location) and other taxes such as those imposed by local governments or special districts. Some states also require registration fees upon purchase, either at the time of sale or afterward; these costs depend on the type of vehicle being purchased and its intended usage. Beyond these basic fees, additional charges such as dealer document preparation fees, advertising fees, and even destination charges may be applied depending on what is negotiated between buyer and seller.
