Looking to buy a plane soon and trying to confirm all the various taxes/fees specific to owning in MA -- it looks like there is an exemption from sales/use tax but I'll have to pay a smaller MA aircraft registration fee (separate from FAA registration)? Is that correct and is that all or is there anything I'm missing? Appreciate any insight from current owners in this state
 
No sales tax on airplane purchases.tax,fee registration yearly goes by weight.
 
$150/year registration for a single. Easy. No sales tax on aircraft-related purchases.

May not be relevant, but we use an NH LLC for administrative purposes (partnership) which runs about $150/year. Having owned a couple of businesses in MA, if you can avoid MA business filings, you're better off.
