What fees and taxes come with buying a BMW in Massachusetts?

A Massachusetts buyer pays the state sales tax, title and registration charges, and the dealer’s documentation fee, and each has its own rule. This section explains what each covers and what sets it, from the Massachusetts sources, so a buyer can read any itemized quote line by line.

Massachusetts DOR Directive 14-1 (2014) treats a dealer’s separately stated document preparation fee as part of the sales price subject to the 6.25% sales tax. The total amount of that fee cannot include any fees paid to the RMV, and the regulations do not require the fee to be itemized. A buyer should read the document fee as part of the price rather than as a separate charge.

Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 90D, Section 33 (2026) caps the separate title preparation charge at five dollars for each transaction. Source: malegislature.gov.
