Georgia vehicle tax after a PCS or overseas import.

Ship or Sell separates an already-owned vehicle from a newly purchased Europe vehicle and from buying a replacement after arrival. Those scenarios can have different tax treatment.

Already owned / transferred vehicle

Non-resident military stationed in Georgia are not required to register a properly home-state-registered vehicle in Georgia. If choosing Georgia title/registration, PT-472NS and separate TAVT/sales-use rules can apply. Georgia new residents pay 3% TAVT of fair market value, plus $18 title and $20 standard plate/registration.

Newly purchased or replacement vehicle

Georgia's current standard TAVT is 7% of fair market value for most ownership transfers, plus $18 title and $20 standard registration.

Why the calculator may still show “Review”

Local taxes, prior registration, military residency, Home of Record, prior tax paid, purchase timing and county/city rules can change the result. Ship or Sell only inserts a dollar tax when the mapped rule has enough facts for a defensible estimate.
