Vehicle registration and title services unavailable Dec. 30-Jan. 4

Car tag and titling services will be unavailable in Georgia over the New Year’s holiday due to upgrades to the state’s Driver Record and Integrated Vehicle Enterprise System.

Vehicle registrations and titling services, including e-Services, will be unavailable from December 30, 2021, through January 4, 2022. Vehicle owners with expiration dates in late December and early January are encouraged to renew prior to December 30 to avoid delays.

During the upgrade, county tag offices and the Georgia Department of Revenue Motor Vehicle Division will be unable to process transactions. All online motor vehicle-related services and self-service kiosks will also be unavailable.

Officials recommend customers and dealers seeking to conduct title transactions complete their business at a county tag office before Thursday, December 30.

Dealers will be able to initiate electronic title and registration (ETR) transactions and issue emergency temporary operating permits (TOPs) over New Year’s weekend. Additionally, law enforcement will still have access to motor vehicle records, officials say.
