Bill > HB2189

This bill, effective January 1, 2027, allows owners of motor vehicles manufactured within the last six years to opt for a five-year registration period instead of the current annual or biennial options, provided they meet all standard registration requirements, including proof of taxes, inspection (if applicable), and insurance. This new five-year registration option will be administered by the director of revenue, who will collect a prorated fee covering the entire five-year period. Additionally, the bill introduces a provision for five-year registration tabs, which serve as evidence of payment and current registration, to be issued by the director of revenue in lieu of traditional license plates for those choosing the five-year option. The bill also updates the fees that agents of the department of revenue can charge for processing various motor vehicle transactions, adding a fee for five-year registrations.
