Auto Excise Tax Abatement
If you feel you are entitled to any adjustment of your excise bill, it is strongly recommended that you pay the bill in full, then contact the Manchester Board of Assessors for an abatement. Although payment of a bill is not a precondition for an abatement, an owner risks incurring late fees and penalties if an abatement is not granted. The assessors must receive applications for abatement any time within 3 years after the date the excise was due or 1 year after the date the excise was paid, whichever is later. Taxpayers must file on time to preserve the right to abatement and to appeal.
