How do I use my tax exemption
when I renew my vehicle registration?
Unfortunately, Internet, kiosk and telephone renewals cannot process address changes, apply tax exemptions or use fee credits. Please mail your renewal if you want to use fee credits, a Veterans exemption or any other tax exemption.

I did not receive a renewal
notice. What do I do?
The most common cause of this is an incorrect address.
Please e-mail
your license plate or driver license number and current address or call for instructions. You may also
renew in person at a DMV office. If we do not have your correct address, we will ask you to mail or fax a Change
of Address Application with your renewal.
If you renew a registration online
prior to changing your address, your documents will be sent to the address we have on record. DMV will charge a
small fee for substitute decals.
We do not mail renewal notices if
your license or registration is suspended, cancelled, revoked or if your
registration is expired more than one year. In
these cases, a DMV office visit will be necessary. If you have received a post asking you to renew your driver's license in person, you must renew at a DMV office.
It is your responsibility to renew on time regardless of
whether you have received a notice.

Why
were my registration fees charged online higher than those listed on
the renewal notice?
Your renewal was late and the system automatically added in the
appropriate late fees. Nevada registrations expire on the exact date
listed on the registration slip and renewal notice, not at the end of
the month. There are no extra charges for renewing online.
