There are no partial-year registrations or refunds. You must register the vehicle for a full year or drive on a movement permit.

You may obtain a ten-day, in-state movement permit online through a MyDMV account or at a DMV office. You can purchase a special "drive-away" permit when leaving the state at a DMV office. See also Former Residents.

Read the error message carefully and check the following:

• You must have a smog check completed if one is required. Tests are required annually in Nevada.
• Plate numbers must be entered accurately with no spaces or  punctuation. Specialty plates must have the proper prefix. See your  current registration or License Plate Codes & Prefixes for your exact plate number.
• Your registration must be in renewal status. This occurs  approximately 30 days before expiration. It will remain in renewal  status until the renewal is completed, the plates are surrendered or up  to 18 months after expiration.
• You may be unable to renew due to an insurance suspension or  unpaid parking tickets. Use our Registration & Insurance Status  Inquiry. See Insurance for insurance issues. You must pay any outstanding parking tickets to the jurisdiction which issued them. Contact us for specifics. 
• You must have cookies and javascript enabled in your web browser.  These are enabled by default in all major browsers. You may wish to  renew at a kiosk or use one of the other options if you suspect technical issues with your computer.
