Late Fee Increase effective June 1, 2009
*NOTE: Fees are programmed without override and waiver by agent.
Owners of motor vehicles must register the vehicle within the expiration timeframe to include the one-month grace period, or face late fees of $25 per month up to a total of $100 per vehicle. This law now includes temporary (permits) under the late fee mandate.
Example: April expiration (a month grace period) will be good through the last business day of the month, by May 29:
Add $25 – on June 1, if not registered
Add $50 – on July 1, if not registered
Add $75 – on August 3, if not registered
Add $100 – on September 1 or later if not registered
Total: $100 in late fees
* The vehicle will also be subject to monthly back ownership tax and vehicle registration fees, which were due in April at the time of expiration.
Vehicles purchased by Colorado residents will be assessed late fees 61 days after the purchase date, if vehicle is not registered.
