I live in Arizona, but I am purchasing a vehicle in OR. Do I have to pay AZ sales tax when I register it here?

You will pay sales taxes in Oregon. Then when you register your car in Arizona show them your sales contract that you got in Oregon. Same thing happened to me this year, I bought a car in Arizona, paid AZ sales taxes, and register the car in Illinois. When registering the car in Illinois I show them the sales contract from AZ and receive a sales tax credit from Illinois. I paid $86 (license plates and registration) to Illinois. After reading some earlier answers, if Oregon doesn't have a sales tax, then you will pay the full fare in Arizona.

You will have to pay AZ tax when you register the car. If you don't produce a receipt, then you will have to pay tax based upon an assumed value of the car.

Yes. Buying a car out of state does not relieve you of paying the sales tax in your home state. Of course, you won't be paying Oregon tax either.

Yes you do,you pay the sales tax in the state where you live not in the state the vehical was purchased in.So,if you know the person you're buying the car from, have him/her put as low of a price as possible on the receipt as possible so your tax won't be as much.If it's a family member or a really close friend,I always have them put down that all I paid was 100 dollars,suggesting it was a friend who sold it to me,and just needed a document to prove they sold the vehical!Believe it works out ok for both parties.

You may have to pay the difference in tax between what you would have paid in CA and what you paid out of state, assuming the place you purchased it had a lower rate than CA.
