1. What do I need to bring with me to get my car registered?

It depends on whether you are renewing or buying a first-time registration. For more information view Vehicle Registration Details

2. I got a new car - can I get credit for the plates I bought for my old car because I don't drive it anymore?

We cannot give credit for transfer from a car that you still own, even if you no longer drive that car. Most of the tax you're paying on your car is not a use tax - it's an ownership tax, similar to the tax on your house. Actually driving the car or not doesn't make a difference.

3. Do I have to pay sales tax before I drive my new car?

The tax must be paid within the 45- or 50- day time limit regardless of your intended use of the vehicle. We can collect the sales tax without registering your car.
