AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee's motor vehicle registration laws by increasing the fees associated with mail-order renewal services for vehicle registration plates and decals. Specifically, the bill raises the fee for handling mail orders of registration plates from $5 to $7, and increases the fee for handling mail orders of decals from $2 to $3. The bill maintains existing requirements that mail-in renewal applications must be postmarked at least 20 days before the license expiration date to allow processing time. Additionally, the legislation authorizes county clerks to adjust these fees annually to match any increases in United States Postal Service prices. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2025, and apply to all county clerks in Tennessee who provide mail-order registration renewal services. This update aims to help county offices cover the administrative costs associated with processing mail-in vehicle registration renewals.
