You may appeal the appraised value of your vehicle because of high mileage if the vehicle averages over 15,000
miles annually based on the age of the vehicle. Divide the total mileage shown on the vehicle’s odometer by the
age of the vehicle. If the result is at least 15,000 miles, complete and return this form. Appeals cannot be made
until after you receive your tax bill, but must be made before the end of the month that taxes are due on the vehicle.
Once the tag renewal date expires, appeals cannot be accepted for that year’s taxes. If you do not receive a tax
bill before your vehicle license plate is due to expire, contact this office for a bill. The amount of any discount is
based on a table provided by the S.C. Department of Revenue.
YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED BY LETTER OR E-MAIL OF ACTION TAKEN.
