A Certificate of Personal Property Non-Assessment indicates, according to St. Charles County assessment records, there are no personal property taxes due for a specific person, business, or corporation for the specified tax year. A Certificate of Personal Property Non-Assessment is required by the Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) to license motor vehicles or obtain a business license in St. Charles County.
A Certificate of Personal Property Non-Assessment may be obtained from the Assessor’s Office if you did not own a vehicle in St. Charles County on January 1 of the required tax year. Complete the online request form, or visit the Assessor’s Office at 201 N. Second St., St. Charles, MO 63301.

Certificates of Personal Property Non-Assessment are no longer issued for military personnel. If your permanent home of record is not Missouri, you will register your vehicles by presenting a current Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) showing the current state of residency at any Missouri Department of Revenue License Office.
Active duty military personnel who maintain Missouri as their permanent home of record and whose LES shows state taxes are paid to Missouri are responsible for paying personal property taxes in this state. You will be asked to complete the appropriate assessment forms and pay taxes for any property owned on January 1 of the tax year.
