California vehicle license fee (VLF).

Explanation: VLF (to the extent it’s a fee based on the vehicle’s value) is treated as a personal property tax and is deductible as an itemized deduction. California state income taxes are not deductible on your California return. Mello‑Roos special assessments and foreign property taxes are generally not deductible on a California return.
