Establishes a centralized State Tax Lien Registry to improve tax collection efficiency and transparency.

The bill creates the State Tax Lien Registry, a centralized public database managed by the West Virginia Tax Division. It aims to improve tax collection efficiency, enhance transparency, support economic development, and reduce administrative burden. The registry will allow the Division to file notices of tax liens electronically, which will be accessible online and in printed form. The Division can sell bulk information from the registry, but not for survey, marketing, or solicitation purposes.
