Deductions & credits

You can deduct the sales tax on your trailer if:

  1. You itemize deductions and

  2. You claim the State and Local Sales Tax deduction, as opposed to the State and Local Income Tax deduction and 

  3. You claim Actual Expenses of your sales tax, as opposed to using the Optional Sales Tax Tables.

Typically, you’d be able to include the tax on a motor vehicle even if you used the Optional Sales Tax Tables, but since your trailer has no motor, that wouldn’t apply.
