The vehicle registration renewal process was modernized in 2014.

We must understand this new law to stay clear of problems.

We will still need to get our motor vehicles inspected and pay the State for our car registration yearly, but both are going to be
presented as part of a single sticker on your windshield; that’s the short version.

This is how it works.

Car registration renewal is the same as always.

However, your registration is now coupled with your safety inspection.

If your inspection is in-date, you can go through car registration as usual.

You may then use the sticker to replace both stickers (automobile registration and safety inspection) which are on your windshield.

Your following State of Texas inspection will not be due again until immediately before your next vehicle registration renewal, so you
may manage to save a few bucks.

If your vehicle registration renewal is due in the same month as the safety inspection, inspect the vehicle first.

Once the inspection is online with the State of Texas, you may get your vehicle registration renewal sticker and then use it to replace
both your safety inspection and vehicle registration stickers.

It's different when your safety inspection is due prior to your vehicle registration renewal.

When it is due, have the automobile safety inspected.

You won't get a sticker, so keep the report in your glove compartment.
![Page 15: Vehicle Regristration Changes](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58ef1e891a28ab76068b464d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
You need to use it to show police officers that you've an up-to-date safety inspection if you're stopped because of another thing.

When your vehicle registration is due, register your vehicle as normal and use the sticker to replace both the prior ones.

The following year, you'll need to get your automobile inspected and in the state's databases within a three month period prior to
renewing your car registration.

In the long run the new vehicle registration renewal system should help everybody.
