When do my tags need to be renewed?

Georgia law requires that all auto tags be renewed within thirty (30) days before the owner's birthday. Tags expire at midnight on the birthday of the first person listed on the registration as owner. Renewals after this date will be subject to a 10% penalty on the ad valorem tax and a 25% penalty on the tag fee. Georgia law requires collection of penalties and interest on ALL late registrations.

Can I renew my tags by mail?

All residents who have obtained Georgia license plates during the current year should receive a renewal pre-bill the following year to renew the tag and pay the ad valorem taxes. Payment must be postmarked by the Post Office (not a metered stamp such as Pitney Bowes) before your birthday or they will be considered late.

If you do not receive your renewal by thirty (30) days prior to your birthday, call 706-291-5150 and a pre-bill will be mailed to you. You may come to the office and have the bill printed for you. For fast, convenient service, mail your tag renewal and application.

Where should the new decal be placed on my license plate?
