Life of Jakers

Apr 25, 2022

Don’t expect anyone to have an answer or to even answer the phone. I would say that this is hands-down the most unprofessional and disgustingly ran county office that I’ve ever had to deal with in my entire life. Every time I called in to ask a question I was hung up on transferred to a voicemail or told I don’t know…. Unbelievable

My wife and I recently moved to Florida and had to get our licenses and tags switched. We went to the Sumter County office. Everyone here was super nice and helpful. Sometimes you do not look forward to tasks like getting car tags and licenses. But, it would be my advice to anyone needing to do these things is not to dread going here. You experience will be pleasant and the time will be efficient.

I have applied for a DL, titled and registered three vehicles and surrendered two plates at this facility and on all 5 visits I found the personnel to be outstanding. The receptionists are pleasant, prompt and knowledgeable, and the inside staff very efficient. I don't cringe at the thought of a visit to the DMV anymore!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

How much is it to register a car

Pat Reynolds | Sep 5, 2021
Sumter County Tax Collector | Sep 5, 2021

Pat Reynolds, Thank you for your question. Usually the first time that you register a vehicle it is around $400.00-$450.00 depending on the empty weight of the vehicle and when the first owners birthday is. If you are just renewing a license plate it is usually around $46.10 unless you have a large truck of a specialty license plate. These fees do not include any sales tax and are just a rough estimate. Thank you

are we required to get a enhanced drivers license

frank spadafora | Sep 5, 2020
Sumter County Tax Collector | Sep 5, 2020

The federal REAL ID Act of 2005 sets new standards for the issuance of driver licenses and ID cards. The REAL ID Act became effective nationwide on May 11, 2008. Florida began issuing REAL ID compliant credentials after January 1, 2010. The new credentials have a star in the upper right corner of the card Florida is a REAL ID compliant state and all Florida licenses should be accepted nationwide. The Department of Homeland Security announced on December 20, 2013, that enforcement of REAL ID credentials will begin in a measured, fair and responsible way. Floridians first saw enforcement at nuclear power plants and restricted areas of certain federal facilities. Enforcement at airports across the country will begin October 1, 2020. The chart below summarizes the four phases of enforcement. https://www.flhsmv.gov/driver-licenses-id-cards/real-id/
