What do i need to bring to get a temporary licence plate just bought a car from owner

Jessica Brewer | Sep 12, 2021
Steven B | Sep 12, 2021

Since you purchased from an individual, and have no tags at all, the best documents to bring are 1. The title, signed by both parties. 2. Proof of minimum liability insurance (best to bring insurance "binder"), 3. Drivers License. 4. It is also beneficial to have a bill of sale but not necessarily required in my experience. To get a temporary tag for 10 days the last fee I noticed was $10. If you wish to be proactive I would download, fill-in and print an MVR-1 (application for title), an MVR-180 (Odometer disclosure statement) a MVR-181 (Damage disclosure statement) and if the title has a lien listed with the previous owner you will need a lien release letter. You'll be expected to pay the HUT (3% of vehicle value) as well as property taxes also.

Martha Hughes | Sep 12, 2021
Jared Gray | Sep 12, 2021

No appointments for registration only driver lisence

What time do they take lunch

Gary Sowder | Sep 12, 2021
Joy Faust | Sep 12, 2021

Open until 4 I don't think they close for lunch.

Do you need appointment?

Patricia Hamilton | Sep 12, 2021
Steven B | Sep 12, 2021

No. And even if the line is out the door, it moves very quickly. Even as the second person outside the door with about 8-10 people ahead of me I was still in front of the counter in 10 minutes. Would have been less if people didn't try to negotiate registration fees XD

Do you need an appointment or can you just show up and be helped?

Alex LaMothe | Sep 12, 2020
Lakesha Elliott | Sep 12, 2020

I just showed up and the wait wasn't as long as I had anticipated. There is a line because they are practicing social distancing but the line was moving pretty smoothly.

dylan jones | Sep 12, 2020

With lines that wrap around the building and 2 to 3 employees, they're not really answering them. I was there twice last week and the phone went unanswered.

Trying to call. 6/8/20. Getting error message. Do I need an appointment for title transfer?

Kirk Fine | Sep 12, 2020

No you don't, I went last week to get a title transfer. They're open 10-3 now. I had to wait in line outside for over an hour when I went around 1130, so be prepared for that

If you get a “not ready” waiver from DMV officer. Then inspection station can pass with waiver. Take previous inspection printouts.

Have insurance and drivers license and title and you can purchase a 10 day tag
