DMV launches new online vehicle registration system

Governor Phil Scott and the Dept. of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Tuesday, Sept. 8, announced the launch of a new online system for temporary registrations and license plates for private vehicle sales.

“This pandemic has changed the way Vermonters do business, and the DMV is no exception,” said Governor Scott.

The online system allows for the issuance of a temporary plate and registration for all types of vehicles that are sold, transported and registered in Vermont.

Users will enter the owner and vehicle information, the system will verify, and then the user will be asked to certify, pay a $6 fee, and print the temporary plate and registration. Temporary plates and registrations are valid for 60 days and can be used for inspection of the vehicle, if required.

In addition to vehicle registrations, the DMV has implemented several new services. New online services include license renewals and learner’s permit tests and modified driver’s license tests.
