UTC Expired Vehicle Registration

Per FSS 320.07 (1), "The registration of a motor vehicle or mobile home expires at midnight on the last day of the registration or extended registration period, or for a motor vehicle or mobile home owner who is a natural person, at midnight on the owner’s birthday."

However, per FSS 320.07(3)(a), officers may not issue a citation for an expired vehicle registration until midnight on the last day of the owner’s birth month of the year the registration expires.

This verbiage was added to the statute in July 2016.   If you attempt to issue a citation using within that month, it will not be legal, and you will not be able to validate.
