Can I get an extension to renew expired tags?
Many states allow you do this, particularly if you're unable to renew your registration due to being outside the state or stationed in the military.
To find out for sure, contact your state's motor vehicle division, or look at the state's Web site. Keep in mind, though, you may be able to renew your tags by phone or online, so you don't necessarily have to handle this task in person. And, you can generally take care of your registration renewal a few months in advance, so there's no need to deal with a vehicle registration deadline that's inconvenient for you.
Just make sure you don't take a chance and drive with an expired vehicle registration. Besides being illegal, you could get nailed with a hefty fine that far exceeds the cost of the renewal.
