Excise Tax Credit for Plug-in Electric or Fuel Cell Vehicles for Fiscal Year 2027 Funding 

Purpose

To advise Maryland dealers that funding for the electric vehicle (EV) excise tax credit is available.

Summary

As of October 1, 2026, the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) reports that funding for the Fiscal Year 2027 EV excise tax credit is available. There is $2,200,000 in credits still available for the State’s FY27 budget. 

Dealers can submit applications and required supporting documents through their dealer portal. The documents required to request a credit are: 

1. Completed VR-334: Excise Tax Credit Request for Plug-In Electric Vehicle 
2. A copy or image of the window sticker (Monroney sticker) 
3. A copy of the bill of sale and 
4. A copy of the Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin 

The most efficient way to submit an EV credit is via the dealer portal. This will ensure that customers are properly queued and processed and receive their credit in a timely manner and enable MVA to track available funding more closely and provide feedback to dealers. 

• Customers can submit applications and the required documents to the MVA via email or via USPS mail, but this may delay the receipt and processing of the customer’s application. 
• If a dealer submits an application via the portal, the customer does not need to submit another application. 
• Customers can expect a refund check in the mail about 4-6 weeks after the MVA receives all required documents.
