2025 WA registration fees are calculated from the MSRP sticker value for new and used vehicles.
Enter the original sticker price as the value in the tab calculator to find registration fees for the next 5 years.
Use these plate fees to calculate monthly car payments in our WA car payment calculator.
How Washington Registration Works
Washington State vehicle registration includes tab fees plus weight fees plus the RTA value-based fee.
The RTA fee decreases yearly after the initial purchase until reaching a minimum renewal cost after 12 years.
The tab calculator discovers how much plate transfers and renewals cost with RTA included by comparing the original value to the model year.
