- New to Texas?
Welcome to the Lone Star State. You have 30 days from the time you move here to register your vehicle in the state. To learn how, follow the steps below. In no time at all, we will be proud to call you a Registered Texan!
Here are the steps to becoming a Registered Texan:
1. Vehicle Inspection and Insurance
Have your vehicle inspected. Simply take your vehicle to a certified Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) inspection station. Many mechanic shops, oil change locations and service stations are certified by DPS as inspection stations. Bring your insurance card.
In Texas, you must show you have insurance coverage for a minimum of $30,000 per injured person, up to a total of $60,000 for everyone injured in an accident, and $25,000 for property damage.
2. Registration
Next, it's time to get your vehicle registration sticker and license plates. To do this, you must visit your local county tax-assessor collector office. You will need your insurance card, proof of vehicle inspection (the Vehicle Inspection Report from the inspection station), and proof you own the vehicle, such as the registration or title from your previous state. You can also show a current foreign/military ownership document or foreign evidence of ownership. Please note that if your insurance policy was issued in another state, you will need to bring your policy in its entirety so that insurance coverage minimums may be verified.
Visit your local county tax office. You are not required to title your vehicle in Texas, but first-time registrants must fill out and complete Form 130-U.
Form 130-U
The base registration fee in Texas is $50.75 plus $1 for TexasSure, the electronic insurance verification program and other Department of Public Safety initiatives. So, total state registration is $51.75 but counties may add other fees to this cost. The state portion of your vehicle's inspection fee will be due at this time. As a new resident, you also will pay sales tax-related fees required by the state's Comptroller of Public Accounts. Sales tax fees on a vehicle can be $90 or the difference between your previous state's sales tax and the Texas sales tax.
While at the county tax assessor-collector's office be sure to ask your customer service representative to sign you up for eReminder. We'll email you when it's time to renew, and you will have the opportunity to renew your registration online.
Note: Active duty members of the U.S. Armed Forces and non-resident, full-time students attending a Texas college or university are not required to register or title their vehicles in Texas.

Thank you so much. Really helped. I just moved and just got my car registered. Make more videos. Very help🙏🏾
Man! Exactly the info I was looking, for thanks
you are very welcome sir. thank you for watching and commenting.
Thanks for the info. Super helpful
New resident tax: If a vehicle is being brought to Texas from a different state or country by a new resident, a $90 new resident tax will need to be paid in place of the use tax.
thank you so much for sharing that with us
Will the tax office fill out form 130-U for me if I bring them all the documents? Or should I fill this out before I go?
I moved to TX two years ago and never moved the car out the back yard inspection from previous state expired and I sent the plates back to the original state where I used to live .how can I drive the car to get inspected in Texas without plates and inspections?
Is there a grace period on registering a vehicle with covid going on now?
Quick question : Moved from Rhode Island. I already have my car inspected last year (RI state mandate for 2 years) . Does that report work or it should be state specific ?
What about a motorcycle? Same process via tax office? Thanks
So they don't ask for the owner to be there to sign? They asked me that because my car was a gift. And do you have to take the salers insurance?
Hello, Thank you for your video. I have a different scenario wherein I had purchased a Texas registered car from another person and i was told i should change the title within 30 days. Now that car is already registered in Texas, Do i just need to do a Title change only or reregister to Texas again. Quick answer will help! Thank you.
I have a vehicle that I brought from Cali to Texas but I don't plan on using it. Do you know if I can register it as non operating in Texas? Thanks in advance
Gracias jodido me sirvio el video.
como as estado hombe? te me hacias parecido
What if I am well past the 30day limit while playing safe due to covid. How does that work?
Hello I just recently moved from California to Texas and I have a truck that is currently under my step fathers name do I just need for him to to sign Over the tittle and I can go ahead and register the vehicle in Texas or how would I go about that? Thanks for your help.
What if i already have lived in texas for years, but have a motorcycle that has vermont plates?
I used a broker and they are in new jersey and im from texas. I bought a car from copart thru them and received a new jersey title. This is my first time ever selling a car and im confused because the new jersey title i received only has 1 spot for the buyer to sign and only 1 spot for the seller to sign. Unlike the texas title which has several spaces to record the buying and selling of the cars lifetime. How would i go about the title once i have a seller. So i need to register the car in texas before i can sell it do i have to turn the new jersey title into a texas title first? And by doing that do i still have to get insurance and inspected if i plan to sell the vehicle anyways? Any help is much appreciated
Go to the DMV you’re going anyway to register it right so go
How about if I bought a salvage title car from another state to Texas ,what is the process please .Thank you
Hello, new to Texas. Do I need to register my vehicle's first before I get my Texas driver's license?
if I am moving from out of state from NY , but dont have a car now, and i get a car and the mininum car insurance while in Texas, what would i have to do? would i only have to update my license?
Hello, i bought a car from a dealer in LA it has a Salvage title, the car was repaired and it runs do i have to fill up only the VTR 61 form or should i go to another place that you did not mention in your video? Thx.
Ps: the dealer gave me only a title registration a bill of sale and the salvage title of LA.
that's a great question. you must fill out your title application, provide original title and original inspection and then your drivers license and they should transfer the title but to answer your question yes.
I purchased a vehicle in Wisconsin and intend to resell it in Texas. I won’t be in Texas for another month. I know it’ll take another 20 days for title to arrive to my address after I arrive in Texas and I take all the paperwork to the DMV/DPS or whatever they call it. Is there a way to do this process completely online in order to avoid waiting those 20 days to put my vehicle up on marketplace in Texas. Please get back to me to elaborate more on this particular situation. Thanks🙏
What if i just bought a car but decided not to title/register in my state and just moved to texas?
Here's a unique scenario. My mom who lives in Oklahoma gave me an older vehicle that currently does not run. She updated the title to have me as the registered owner. Since it's not running, how can I transfer the ownership to a Texas title when the vehicle will not pass inspection? Are there any options?
You can transfer the title to Texas but not 'register' the vehicle for driving.
I’m military, I had my car registered in CT then moved back to TX. I don’t have the title just my last registration, insurance and inspection . How could i go about it from here ?
What if I leave one vehicle in Utah but I live in Texas? What do I do then?
Hello! Question for you. If I buy a car here in Florida and plan to move to Texas within 30 days would I need to buy a title in Texas as well? Or could I purchase in Florida and have the title transferred during the purchase?
For private sales you don't need a title transfer. Bring the title to your dmv and all the other stuff bill of sale, Id, proof of residency, insurance card and pay the fees for Florida Texas sales tax and you will be good
Thanks bro, just moved to Texas last week. Was actually searching this up lol
Welcome to Texas! Glad we could help man! Thanks for watching!
when you get the hard plates ,what do you do with the old out of state plates? And also ,is there a place who can put the plates for you on your vehicle?
Once you get the hard plates, you should discard your old plates. And any shop can do that for you, they should even do it for free since it’s so simple! It’s only 2-4 screws per license plate! You got this!
@@HidalgoMotorsCo Hey from Philly (Pennsylvania) I move to Houston in 3 weeks. I don’t own the car, nor am I the policy holder (insurance) - my father is. How would I go about this? Do I have to get the car in my name (title) and have the insurance as well? Or could I just own the title and my father remains as the policyholder for insurance? How should I go about this? What’s your take?
It’s all based on the state you are coming from. For instance , Maryland requires you mail them back
if I had already got my inspection in Detroit, would I still need to get an inspection un Texas again before the registration?
Indeed, you gotta get your car inspected in Texas.
how do you know how much your car is worth? I know how much I paid for it two years ago. Is that what they go by/
Question 🙋♂️ I bought a vehicle with a Louisiana title so we filled the info but it looks like Louisiana titles require a witness or a notary signature does that count here in tx ?
That’s an excellent question… I would contact a local title service in your area and ask them. I don’t want to misinform you.. to me. I would say it matters for sure..
Hello I appreciate the video. But I want opinions, Im trying to buy a beautiful used car from a person who bought it out of state and hasnt changed the name to his. Is this going to be a nightmare?
Can I add my mother name to my registration when I have a lien on the vehicle ?
If its been more then 30 days can i just lie and tell them i moved in last week? Because I got covid and i stayed at home for about 3 months
Hi. do you happen to know what are the circumstances for a "Registration Purposes Only"? I have a truck registered and titled in FL, ca I apply for a Registration Purposes Only? I do not wish to surrender the negotiable out-of-state evidence of ownership in order to obtain a Texas negotiable title.
You do not have to transfer your title or evidence of ownership. I you do want transfer to a Texas title it is free when you register but if you come back later to change it it will cost an extra 33.00 and they don't tell you that always at registration.
I have a question! I dont know if you may have the answer... so the scenario is... I am born and raised in Texas and have a registered vehicle in Texas in my name, but I also have a vehicle that I bought while living in New York and is registered in the state of New York, therefore i have two vehicles, a Texas car and a New York car!! So now the question... so if I sold my Texas vehicle and keep the plates, can i use those plates for when i register my New York car in Texas? or would i have to get new plates for the New York car or what up.... Thanks for your insights!
Okay.. first of all thanks so much for watching! Second.. to answer your question... you will need to get new plates because your texas car plates are registered to that car specifically... so when you register your New York car in texas, the state will issue new plates to you. So your old plates will be useless.. hope that answers your questions. Long story short. No you cannot. Once again thanks for watching and let me know if you have any more questions
@@HidalgoMotorsCo awww man thanks for the answer ha was mostly curious
Could have had more details on the taxes. That confused me more. Have to look into that a bit more.

What if its a salvage out of state.
My car has been under my dad's name since purchase. Now we're about to pay it off but he resides in another State. How can I go about having this vehicle transfered to me and registered in TX once he gets the title?
Excellent question. First pay the vehicle off. Get the out of state title. And have your dad give you a power of attorney to transfer ownership of title. Or a form called “right of possession” and go to the courthouse and get it changed. Of course with the criteria required - inspection receipt, proof of ownership (insurance, title, etc) and drivers license or ID. But if you have any more questions I’d strongly suggest you contact a title service for professional help haha let the pros handle it
@@HidalgoMotorsCo Thank you so much! :)
what happens if one doesn't register their car after the 30 day period?
You might pay a fine when pulled over by a cop I think
What about a Mexican vehicle to Tx is it the same?
Hey there. My question wasnt answered by your video. I moved to Tx from NY and registered my car and have plates. I have my NYS title. What if I wanted to transfer the title to Tx in case its ever lost/destroyed and need another and not go thru NYS since my address in Tx and they wont mail it here? Sorry, thats alot right? LOL
Hey! I have just moved to TX from NY like today. Im wondering how you had your car registered and obtained a TX license plate? NY DMV website says I have to surrender my NYS registration and mail the plate to them before I can do the out-of-state registration.
I have a house in Texas. My car is in California. I work there. Can I still register my car?
Does this apply if I’m still paying on my car and I need it registered In Texas ?
Right that’s what I’m trying to figure out
And again he is not answering this question cos im In thesame boat 🤦🏾♀️
Yes, just contact your lien holder!
My uncle give me a car for my birthday he lives in New Mexico and I live in Texas the car is on his name what can I do ?? Thank you
Heyy! Congratulations on your free car haha but to answer your question, Have him send you the title (if you don’t have it already) and be sure to get a texas vehicle inspection from any certified shop. Then locate a title service near you (due to the virus now, only title companies are allowed to go and drop titles off. most DMVs are closed to the public.) and within a short period of time, you should have your hard plates and registration sticker (blue) the title will be mailed to you by the DMV and can take up to 30 days to get since everyone is moving so slow and the DMVs are short staffed!! Let me know we can help you if you are in Houston. Hey thanks for watching! Feel free to ask any other questions
Thank you for the information. If I buy a car in texas, but the previous owner never changed the out of state title when they moved to texas, does this process still apply?
Yes it does.
What if your vehicle is valued at more than 500? Would’ve been good to mention taxes and fees for that.
You will pay 6.25% of the sales price or they will give you a vehicle value.
Hidalgo Motors Co TV really??? Wow! 😢😢
Any red flags to look for if buying an out of state car in Texas?
Yes, please buy from a trusted seller or individual. if it's too good to be true.. it probably isn't a good car. so do your homework and make sure the vehicle is not stolen. be sure the title is clean and not branded unless you'd like to deal with that.
I have a car that was purchased in TX 4 years ago. I moved out of state for two years. Car was registered out of state during that time. Now I have moved back to TX. Can the registration still be done online without paying taxes on top of the registration fees.
Hello there, after I pass my inspection, can I do everything else on line? Thank you for your help
No they want you to stand in line like cattle to slaughter.🐄
You
this is all for the district of columbia in the water not texas on the land
why not go straight to point of drivers license, why talk about car registration??? this is drivers license not car registration..ppl can have license and not have a car
Dam no help at all i just need an office that's open or the fee schedule hell going over the forms would be nice all you said was pay the fees and get plates no information at all on what money i need or form names at all and with covid going on you state to walk in an office yeah NOT HAPPENING try again dude
Try searching for offices in different counties. Some are open to the public. Some are closed. If you don’t find any, locate a title service. They have access to the courthouses
@@HidalgoMotorsCo ive been on this issue since February trying to figure out fees and going from harris county to 3 counties over north and west
Man I’m sorry. This virus has really screwed everything and everyone
