Can I deduct smog test fees if the test was required to renew the cars registration?

Sansei · ‎June 1, 2019

For some vehicles California requires a smog test as a condition of registration renewal. Is the cost of the test and\or certificate deductible?

No. that is not deductible. It is a fee, not a tax. Fees are not deductible.
