The State Department of Revenue’s Division of Vehicles has changed its vehicle registration process. Vehicle owners are now required to show their drivers licenses when registering to allow for cross referencing within a new computer system being installed by the DOV. Business must show FEIN documents.
Those Kansans with or seeking personalized plates also will see changes. As the plate design has changed, all personal plate holders must order new plates in 2010. Orders will be accepted beginning Nov. 2 of this year; plates will be distributed during the owner’s renewal month in 2010.
Plate letter combinations must now be unique, also a change from the past. Due to this change, 31,6000 plate holders in the state will not be allowed to retain their current plate combination. First holders of any configuration will be allowed to keep that plate, however.
Personalized plate holders will now receive only one plate, for the rear of the vehicle, rather than the two that have been given out in the past. Cost remains $40 per five year period for the specialized plates.
In Allen County, the cost to register a vehicle can be found through the county’s Web site, www.allencounty.org. Click on the vehicle tag and tax estimator link for the information, or call the treasurer’s office at 365-1409.
As a cost saving measure, the state will no longer include a return envelope with registration renewals.
