A bunch of new Missouri laws passed in the spring go into effect today. The most noteworthy right now is private car sales.

You’ll have to take your bill of sale directly to a licensing office, pay the tax immediately, and receive a printed plate on the spot while waiting for their official plates.

Oh, those printed plates? They’re going away too. When dealerships get the computer software from the state sometime next year, you’ll have to pay your sales tax on the spot. No more temporary tags.
