Sure, but only if you live in a county that is eligible for online registration renewal and your renewal notice doesn’t include the words “Vehicle Record Messages.”
If your county isn’t eligible, you can renew by mail or in person just like you did during your first car registration.
At this point, you’ll need to hold off on any register car process. To find out your next steps (Is it simply a matter of having a new inspection? Do you need to make repairs to meet the state’s smog check requirements?), contact your county tax office.
