Internet Vehicle Registration Renewal to Begin in Midland County

    Residents of Midland County will now have another way of renewing their vehicle registration. Beginning March 19, 2001, motorists can bypass the lines and the stamps and head straight to their keyboards. Online registration renewal will be available at: http://www.texasonline.state.tx.us/NASApp/kpmg/TxdotVRPublicManager.

    "This web site gives our customers one more way of interacting with us," said Kathy Reeves, Midland County Tax Assessor Collector. "Residents will be able to renew their registration when it's convenient for them, day or night."

    This online service will be limited to vehicle owners who have received a Registration Renewal Notice from the Texas Department of Transportation. The registration must be due within 90 days but cannot be expired. Current liability insurance coverage is also required, and there cannot be any traffic warrants or other questionable notations on the motor vehicle record.

    Motorists who renew via the Internet will be asked to enter a minimal amount of information, including their address, their vehicle, insurance coverage, and the credit card they will use for payment. The Midland County Tax Office will then process the information to ensure that all requirements are met. It will take tax office staff approximately two business days to process an approved online transaction and mail the renewal sticker to the customer. Site users will pay a $2 convenience fee and a $1 county mail-processing fee for the service.

    "We're excited to join the other counties that are already part of this program," said Kathy Reeves. So far, Internet registration renewal has been implemented in 30 out of 254 Counties. The Texas Department of Transportation is responsible for development and maintenance of the web site. Later phases of the project may include Internet registration for new vehicles through dealerships, and specialty license plate orders.
