Motor Vehicle Services
Vehicle Tag Renewals can be processed online using a RIN (Renewal Identification Number), by mail or by bringing to the Tax Commissioner’s Office.
Renewals on Motor Vehicles are due on the owner’s birth date. Vehicles owned by a business are based on the first letter of the business name. Renewals must be made on or before the birth date of the primary owner when owned by an individual, or the last day of the month for a business.
The penalty for late registration is 10% of the tax and 25% of the tag fee. These penalties begin immediately following the due date.
We accept checks, money orders, and cash. We also accept debit/credit cards and there is a convenience fee that will be added to your total due.
You must obtain the handicap/disabled placard from the county in which you live.
Title Ad Valorem Tax
Effective March 1, 2013. Vehicles titled in this state will be exempt from sales and use tax and the annual ad valorem tax. Instead, these vehicles will be subject to a new, one-time title ad valorem tax that is based on the value of the vehicle. For more information on Title Ad Valorem Tax and FAQs, click HERE.
