An owner has seven (7) calendar days from the purchase or transfer date or the date they establish residency in Georgia to title and register their vehicle. If you fail to register during the seven (7) calendar day period, you will be subject to fines if stopped by law enforcement. Click here to see the Georgia Department of Revenue's list of what vehicles do and do not require titles.
Complete and print Form MV-1, a Title Application for the State of Georgia. All owners on the title must sign this application and must have a valid Georgia Driver's License or Georgia Identification Card. Georgia requires Title Ad Valorem Tax of 6.6% (beginning 01/01/2020) to be paid at the time of titling. To authorize an alternate person to sign on your behalf, complete and print Form T-8. Form T-8 must be notarized, and the original form must be submitted. We must have a copy of your driver's license.
Once your vehicle is registered in Georgia each year, your tag renewal notice will normally arrive in the mail well before your vehicle's tag renewal deadline – which is the registered vehicle owner's birthday. For more information about tag renewals in Georgia, click here.
When your vehicle requires a Georgia title, you will be unable to register your vehicle and obtain a Georgia license plate (tag) or to transfer an existing Georgia license plate to the vehicle without a Georgia title already issued in your name or without applying for a title at the time of registration.
