Guide to Vehicle Registration Fees and Issues
This article provides essential information regarding vehicle registration fees, potential errors in the charging process, and how to address them effectively.
Charging Registration Fees
When processing a vehicle registration, it is advisable to charge the full registration fee of $27, along with an additional $33 MVSC fee. This approach ensures that all necessary charges are covered for the customer’s delivery. Be sure to consider any specific circumstances or promotions that may impact this decision.
Troubleshooting Incorrect Charges
If you notice that you have been charged a full registration fee for a vehicle that already has current registration, this situation should be addressed promptly. Such occurrences can indicate an issue within the system. To resolve this matter:
- Submit Necessary Documents: Include a statement of facts explaining your situation.
- Contact DMV: Reach out directly for further investigation into the error.
Dealer Transfers and Planned Non-Operation Status
You may have been incorrectly charged full fees during dealer transfers because the "planned non-operation" box was not marked at the bottom of your transaction form. To adjust your fees appropriately:
- Select “Planned Non-Operation”: If applicable, mark this box and provide a reason for your request.
- No Need to Check Box: If you intend to pay fees to bring your registration current, do not check this box but ensure all required documents are included.
Error in Title Processing Requests
