Registration renewal is the fastest thing we do. Most customers are in and out in a few minutes. Bring your paperwork, we pull your record, you pay the fees, and we hand you the sticker and a printed registration card before you leave.
If you have a renewal notice, bring it — it makes the lookup instant. If you lost it, that is fine too. We can find your record with your license plate and VIN.
What to bring
- Your DMV renewal notice, if you received one
- Your most recent registration card
- Any document showing your VIN and license plate number (a REG 156 works)
- Proof of current insurance
- A smog certificate, if your vehicle is due for one
DMV forms
We keep blank copies at the counter — you do not have to print anything.

Registration Renewal — common questions
Can I renew my registration without the renewal notice?
Yes. We can look your vehicle up with the license plate and VIN, so a missing renewal notice is not a problem.
Do I get my sticker the same day?
Yes. We print and issue your sticker and registration card on the spot — you do not wait for anything in the mail.
Can you renew a registration that is already expired?
Yes. Late renewals are processed here as well. DMV penalties still apply, but we can pull the exact amount due before you pay.
