vehicle registration renewal has changed in texas
TRANSCRIPT
The vehicle registration renewal process was modernized in 2014. We must understand this new law to stay clear of
problems.
We will still need to get our motor vehicles inspected and pay the State for our vehicle registration yearly, but both
are going to be presented as part of a single sticker on your windshield; that’s the short version. This is how it works.
You may then use the sticker to replace both stickers (automobile registration and safety inspection) which are
on your windshield.
Your following State of Texas inspection will not be due again until immediately before your next vehicle
registration renewal, so you may manage to save a few bucks.
If your vehicle registration renewal is due in the same month as the safety inspection, inspect the vehicle first.
Once the inspection is online with the State of Texas, you may get your vehicle registration renewal sticker and then
use it to replace both your safety inspection and vehicle registration stickers.
You need to use it to show police officers that you've an up-to-date safety inspection if you're stopped because of
another thing.
When your vehicle registration is due, register your vehicle as normal and use the sticker to replace both the prior
ones.
The following year, you'll need to get your automobile inspected and in the state's databases within a three month
period prior to renewing your vehicle registration.
A web site has been made available from the Lone Star State that can answer any inquiries about the new system.
