[FL-AR]

We bought a motorhome in Florida in March. We planned to register it in Arkansas. Much to our surprise, we learned that there is no agreement between Florida and Arkansas on sales tax. In order not to pay sales tax in both states, delivery had to be arranged so we would take possession in Georgia.

According to Florida sales tax info:
Currently, the states of Arkansas, Mississippi, and West Virginia impose a sales tax on motor vehicles, but they DO NOT allow a credit for taxes paid to Florida. Residents of these states should be informed that they must pay sales tax to Florida at the rate imposed by their home state when they purchase a vehicle in Florida and also must pay tax to their home state when the vehicle is licensed in their home state.
