Sales Tax exemption

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here has knowledge about sales tax exemptions in New York, specifically for truck purchases.

I recently purchased a used semi-truck through a loan from Missouri, where there is no sales tax on truck purchases. I’ll be operating under a Missouri-based company using its DOT and MC number. However, I reside in New York and was told I only need to register the title here.

My question is: Do I still need to pay New York sales tax when registering the truck, even though it was purchased and financed in Missouri for use under a Missouri-based company?

Unfortunately, the accountant who handles my taxes doesn’t seem to have a clear answer, so I’m feeling stuck.

If anyone knows a good accountant who understands trucking businesses and New York state tax laws, I’d greatly appreciate a referral.

Thank you!
